might be a cycle back to the answer to everything in 60 minutes on d. w. global ideas is on its way to bring you more conservation. how do we make cities greener? how can we protect habitats? we can make a difference. global ideas, environmental series in global 3000 on t w and online avoids been 1st. my boy boy, especially chris valley. there's lots of them holes with a low blood. it's something that people always try to look away when they see a blog. but to me,
3:31 pm
it's very real. they have a love for vampire fangs. zombies and all things. corey, this episode of art sunbelt is dedicated to horror fans. feel the delicious prickle of fear. sit back and enjoy the macabre ride. they start on the northeast coast of england at a birthday party. for the most famous member of the living dead, bram stoker's novel dracula was published in may 1897. the book became a worldwide classic and founded a successful shower. vampire stories continue to be popular, but where does our fascination with their lowering blood drinkers? stem from irish writer, bram stoker,
3:32 pm
got inspiration for his classic story whilst holidaying in whitby on england's north east coast. in the 1890s. in his novel, this is where count dracula lands in the western world. and in our nightmares. today the town is a price of pilgrimage for horror fans wiser jonah will never die. reason number one obsessive fans. it's a very good story throw months of it's all knutson, you know, and the consequences of, of lovin deception. i suppose this, this, the, the, the fight i have a good over evil to bus flew, who we saw the bus against the moon, with a heavy of a know exactly how his wretched a sure. because he was in same fig because it's spooky. it was a bright full moon with heavy black driving clouds,
3:33 pm
which through the whole scene into a fleeting di rama of light and shade. bram stoker's novel dracula was published on may 26 1897. it's presented as a true story. brief. number 2, for the john was enduring success, mixing fact and fiction. professor catherine when has studied the elements that the irish writer took from whitby. mm. the also did his research in whitby library, and it was there, of course that he discovered the name dracula. and he changes the name of his vampire from count one pier, which would never have worked strictly. it's very melodramatic to counteract. ha stoker read about vlad dry q or flat. the impaler, a 15th century ruler of for lakia and the national hero. in romania, he was almost certainly not vampire, but did have
3:34 pm
a reputation for brutality in particular for impaling prisoners. although historians say the stories may well have been exaggerated or even invented. stoker took the name for draculas, 1st british victim from a grave stone in the cemetery of saint mary's church. swales, great name those and us her yes he finds, finds this name here. and sites to use is immortalized. this figure in his, in his novel figure, introduces lucy and mina to, to all the tails of whitfield, and is the 1st victim on british soil of the vampire chris, their victims, on the boat in real life. that boat was the russian schooner, the de meet tree, and was wrecked in a storm in 1885 on the beach below saint mary's church. this true story also
3:35 pm
finds its way into the novel. in slightly changed form. it changes the name of the boat. he doesn't do very much. he just changed the name of the both from the demetrius, the diameter, the only living thing the pangs of this boast is a black dog. a huge, how many bombs up the steps here? this huge hound is dracula. stoker picked up on the local legend of the bog, asked the black dog ghost, and skilfully wove it into his elaborate tale foot. strangest of all, the very instant the shore was touched. an immense dog sprang upon the deck from below. as if shot up by the can cushion and running forward, jumped from the bough onto the sand. vampire law is much older than stokers. novel belief in vampires was widespread in southern and eastern europe. in the 17th century. such that pope benedict the 14th had to declare that vampires were
3:36 pm
fallacious. fictions of human fantasy by the early 18th century vampires were beginning to colonize western european novels like john polly dories. the vampire, originally attributed to lord byron doctor clair. nellie says bram stoker was clearly inspired by these earlier works. there are so many other vampire novels. polito res, the vampire pre dates, stokers, novel. we've also got camilla by sheridan, left a new as that quite a few examples. camilla by sheridan, left than you is really interesting because even though it's written in quite coded turns for the period. uh, camilla is a lesbian vampire. and obviously that links to an awful lot of the queer agenda that you tend to find in gothic texts. again, the fact that gothic texts are about me being conscious about,
3:37 pm
about arguably the taboo. which brings us to reason number 3 for the genres, enjoying appeal, sex and sexuality. them high tech, always on one level, about forbidden desires. also the descriptions in the novel are very overly sexualized as lots of references to so of blood and her lips and dripping with blood. but she's wearing this white dress. so there's all these kind of reflections on innocence of virginity and all of those kinds of yes, broader ideas that will have been in a, in kind of discourse in victorian society.
3:38 pm
ah, in 1922, the novel dracula celebrated its 25th anniversary. interest in the novel was waning, but it was about to get a major boost through reinvention for the silver screen. knots for our 2 directed by legend re, german director f. w mar. now is ground 0 for the vampire film? reason full for the vampire genres rising from the grave. reinventing dracula at the movies? ah! after you were nose not for our 2 was the 1st vampire movie and it did set a template for a lot of those to come even though it's quite distinct. i mean his vampire, his, his count or lock is very different from the draculas that will come later. but various elements in terms of the the way the sunlight can kill a vampire,
3:39 pm
ah, the way that count or lock life after young women and seizes them at night coming into their bedroom windows of those elements we see play out in a lot of other vampire movies it visually so striking. i mean it's standard is high german expressionist style with extremely sharply contrasting shadows and light and all of course done in a silent film. so everything the sort of visual elements play much stronger role. unfortunately, the makers of this historic horror film didn't bother obtaining the rights they
3:40 pm
just changed the names dracula became all on. for example, stokers, widow, florence, successfully sued, and in 1925, a court ordered the destruction of all copies. fortunately for us, some survived the 1st us film adaptation came in 1931. actor. lagossi was a hungry and immigrant who had played the role in an authorized stage fashion. his acting and delivery may seem wooden tossed to day, but his chilling and hunching quality only added menace for audiences in the 19 thirty's. ah! i am that you will bellow those see brought to dracula. the character of dracula was eastern europeans sophistication. yeah, he, this is
3:41 pm
a guy who was able to speak a beautiful long, complicated sentences and incredibly charming and with an amazing hungarian accent of. i am gone called raoul. i want to lock your blood. this was no longer just a monster who wanted to kill innocent women. this was a sophisticated aristocrat who also wanted to kill innocent women. and that image of dracula became a template for basically all the vampires to fall dracula slept through the 19 forties and most of the 1950s. but on the cost of the $906.00 days a franchise was born british actor christopher lee played the count for the 1st time bosa, marketing, and lees, mesmerizing and simmering performance oozed sexuality. this is the story of dr. creature who destroys all who we touch or crisper we brought to the character of dracula was sex. he filled this character with erotic tension and lost all
3:42 pm
these women. a bosom women toppling over and fainting in front of dracula as he consumes them. and that sort of a sexual energy was something we saw in vampires from then on i, in cinema ah, reason 5 for the vampire genres. recent revitalization, the female perspective in and royce is interview with the vampire. the blood suckers aren't driven by their nature to find new victims. but some have developed a conscience and feel quite bad about it. anne rice wrote an interview with a vampire after the death of
3:43 pm
a child. and this is her way of coming to terms with loss. and of course, i suppose the vampire had that type of appeal for her. initially, the sense of, of living for ever, which is one of the vampires at grace appeals. rice is no. those have many fans in the l g p t q plus community to create a family of 2 mel vampires and a young girl, a child vampire. so what she creates for us in this a quite radically in the 19 seventy's and later found, of course by neil jordan in the 19 ninety's is the gay family. in stephanie miles twilight books and the films that followed vampires are young and beautiful. i writes from a christian perspective is working within a very at, within a mormon context as well that supplies don't have sex before marriage if the human female and the comes to the vampire is edward cullen lets us defense this down and,
3:44 pm
and take. there is a victim at then she is, you know she's going to become a vampire. and if not what she looks like. that's fascinating, frederick collin. if how she smells, the sensation is so overwhelming for edward when they 1st meet. that bella clearly believe she has a body odor. problem. reason 6 for the success of the genre is it's basis in the dark arts. not for our to was co produced by graphic designer albin growl, a student of their coats and lifelong member of for turner. today, sir turney, under the name masterpiece, cps, grow, influenced the look of the film and was responsible for the intrusion of alchemical symbols in a key scene. ah, long term max shrike's depiction was so terrifying to 19 twenties audiences that here too, rumors abound. some people have claimed that he actually was a vampire,
3:45 pm
but he can't be buried here because he's, he's one of the and dead, but there's no way that could be an ordinary bad. and also i be backtrack. kubat, that sounds like a made up name. right. max max fright. come on now capua, real act, right. i become do vampires really exist? back in whitby bay, some fans of the genre would only agree to meet us after dark. my name is the countess stretchable. and on because i wanted to carry on notice of lucifer lucifer to icu. you know, we believed that fan toys all room. i mean we don't sit, sit around drinking blood, what day long are there other other means of for such throwing our, our needs. there's nothing different really about us. there's lots of empires in whitby. well, we're not sure about that,
3:46 pm
but 120. 5 years after the publication of bram stoker's novel dracula has millions of fans all over the world. the vampire genre has revitalized itself feeding on the blood of bleach. new generation, bram stoker, died in 191210 years before the 1st film. what would he have made of the enduring success of his creation? i think this is a wonderful celebration of france. stoker's legacy and the legacy of dracula. because stoker was a man of theater, he spent his whole life looking at costumes, seeing productions gothic productions at the light them here. sure. and what a celebration their faith smith performance. these costumes people living out there found to face the novel is had real traction in white, a popular culture. and you can certainly see that around whitby with over tourist attractions with shops that are inspired by dracula,
3:47 pm
by bram stoker. and it's all that really, that makes it, you know, so popular how he's inspired. thousands of writers and stage directors. and of course, places like the whitby goth festival that have profited from this. and is that ticket gathering of people who love to come and celebrate the goth life things that bram stoker really introduced to the world way back in 18. 97. i'm feeling quite mirror a mirror on the wall who was the great to screen dracula. of them all. mm . very well, bram stoker's idea that vampires have no reflection seemed taylor made for gripping scenes in countless films. but we can't ask the mirror. let's ask the fans who their favorite dracula was. lagossi is the is the my opinion, the architectural dracula. on because it is person relationship to the character. it was unique to the fact he was a hungarian sylvania,
3:48 pm
an actor elliptical refugee. i will know what the goals his marines were and the cult and the koberson, the in the accent. i've always been fascinated. boy, boy, especially christopher lee, of the for good for me personally, the pitts moses dracula. my truck and na serrato will stand as really one of the greatest for films of all time. and i would say one of the greatest films of that since the 1980s dracula has had some competition. zombies does re animated corpses have become a fixture and film and books, parade and lumbering monsters. the annual somebody walk in like the fans, if they resurrected worldwide. such events have been well since 2001, including in mexico, chilly singapore and new york, the undead keep reappearing in our streets. so would have fun seen them and why
3:49 pm
they enjoyed dressing up as brainless zombies. hungry for human flesh. so much. somebody seemed to have 1st featured in west african miss. derived from creole. the term means go, store spirit of the dead. my a 80. zombies found their way into american pop culture. was on behind, began in the late seventy's, within living dead film theories directed by george andrew romero, which lasted until the mid eighties, the films attained cult status and contains social criticism. somebody storming a shopping center is a metaphor for capitalism. that night as 2004 we make was also a success. look up the road. there's a lot more there. are they coming here? maybe they're coming for us. the key thing with the zombies. as monsters, is there not a like a frankenstein or something or aliens? they are whole human, they're humans and are within us somehow. um and that's the threat. and it's used very useful for filmmakers to zombies as
3:50 pm
a metaphor for some general anxiety in our society that we know comes from people. but we don't know how to control and we think could threaten us here. please help me. the south koreans only film, trained to pusan, also criticizes the government's inability to solve problems. the film was made off for a series of accidents involving bullet trains, and zombies have moved forward with times in hit video games the last of us, zombies are more on channel faster and more efficient. a mutated fungus causes visit the outbreak. whether in the virtual world or in real life, so please remain on the road to success. satisfying appetite for horror. the next some be parades, all set to happen out helloween. so until then, keep practicing been scary. what is every harmful need blood and lots of

3:53 pm
i'm really proud of, i loved it. she says the visual effects field is still largely male. for every 300 men in the sector there around 10 or 15 women. but this does the scanner. on the contrary, it pushes her to succeed. the networking platform at the belly knowledge is a useful event for her to meet other people in the film wound. people don't know what visual effects artists do. people actually and done now the process behind all these footages i feel like a b, r to bridge between the fantasy world and real world. so the ag actually executing their fancied the world and make it real make it happen, designing something to disgust dust and then making it look real even when it was
