Thirteen Women (1932) RKO Radio Pictures Dir. George Archainbaud

Peg Entwistle as Hazel Clay Cousins Mary Duncan as June Raskob Harriet Hagman as May Raskob

Hazel watches her long-time friends, the Raskob Sisters, perform their famous trapeeze act at Joe E. Marvel's Circus. June Raskob is feeling uneasy, having received a letter from a New York Swami warning that her latest horroscope shows she will soon cause the death of a loved one. Hazel knows something is amiss, but is unable to do more than give June meaningful looks from the stalls far below. Tradgedy strikes during the act when June fails to catch her sister, May, who plummets to her death.

Peg Entwistle, a successful stage actress, played Hazel in Thirteen Woman, which was to be her only feature film. On 16th September, 1932, she committed suicide by jumping from atop the "H" on the Hollywood sign at Mount Lee.

Thirteen Women was released the following month, on 15th October, 1932.

An excellent and detailed biography for Peg Entwistle can be found on the IMDB [X]

Theater display for “Cat People” (1942).

This was the movie that invented the “jump scare,” created not by the director, but by editor Mark Robson.

Continuing movement in one direction, a through line in a direction between cuts, and then had something come in parallel to the continuing movement. This resulted in a jarring sense shock and fear. The jump scare was extremely rare prior to the 1980s.
