Tonight, Dr. Michael Lee is discussing the horror inside us and why and how one’s inner certainties and anxieties can make the everyday person monstrous. Dr. Lee teaches courses on 20th-century music history, American music history, film music and film studies at the University of Oklahoma. Over the years, he has been teaching courses on the history of horror films, and one of his many specialities is Vampire Cinema. He is a passionate music historian who loves horror movies and began researching their film scores and diversified styles, especially from the 1930s and 1940s. Listen to how our perception affects how we interpret horrors and what Val Lewton’s contribution was.
