Film Allusions in Crimson Peak

Hi, all! So because I am deep in my horror movie feels at present and, as horror is a genre that some of you are new to/unfamiliar with, want you all to have some more context for Crimson Peak as an intertextual Gothic pastiche, I thought make a little list of films (mostly horror) that CP references, alludes to, or visually echoes (other than Jane Eyre or any iteration of “Bluebeard,” that is). This list is certainly not exhaustive, but I hope will give you a starting place at understanding the scale of the intertextual web this movie is weaving (also maybe give you some movie recs if you’re into horror/classic cinema. I’ll try to include links to films in the public domain).

Nosferatu (1922) and other early 20th century cinema

Del Toro makes use of a lot of the aesthetics and techniques of film from the late Victorian period/early 20th century (appropriate since Crimson Peak is set in the 1890s - incidentally one of the peaks of Gothic literature). One of these is iris shots/iris transitions (shown above in this screenshot from Nosferatu). Iris transitions are when a circular black mask over the shot shrinks, closing the picture to a black screen (very common in early horror film and 1920s cartoons, ie Betty Boop). If you’d like some very iconic, silent vampire cinema, you can watch Nosferatu here at archive.org for free.

The Old Dark House (1932) | Watch free on Archive.org

Seeking shelter from a storm, five travelers are in for a bizarre and terrifying night when they stumble upon the Femm family estate.

A trope codifier for the haunted house movie, complete with oodles of Gothic weirdness, including those ooky spooky, co-dependent Femm siblings.

Rebecca (1940) | Watch free on Archive.org

A self-conscious bride is tormented by the memory of her husband's dead first wife.

Based on Daphne Du Maurier’s novel of the same name (itself heavily based on Jane Eyre), this Gothic variation on “Bluebeard” was Alfred Hitchcock’s first American film, won two Academy Awards, and is still considered one of the best psychological thrillers of all time. Features an overbearing female figure who directly interferes with our protagonist’s marriage to her, er, Prince Charming in the form of a Sapphic housekeeper obsessed with keeping the memory of the first Mrs. De Winter alive.

Notorious (1946) | Watch free on Youtube

A woman is asked to spy on a group of Nazi friends in South America. How far will she have to go to ingratiate herself with them?

Don’t drink the tea! Also, butterfly-backed chairs. Allll the butterfly-backed chairs.

The Fall of the House of Usher (1960)

Upon entering his fiancée's family mansion, a man discovers a savage family curse and fears that his future brother-in-law has entombed his bride-to-be prematurely.

Two prongs here: Crimson Peak is very much playing with Edgar Allan Poe’s short story (incest siblings! Gothic manors sinking into the earth!) and evoking a particular aesthetic associated with a number of 1960s/70s “schlock” Gothic horror films like those made by Roger Corman who applied his use of vivid color and psychedelic surrealism to a number of Poe’s works.

AESTHETIC!!!!! Speaking of aesthetic excess...

The Brides of Dracula (1960) and other Hammer Horror films

Vampire hunter Van Helsing returns to Transylvania to destroy handsome bloodsucker Baron Meinster, who has designs on beautiful young schoolteacher Marianne.

Known for a series of Gothic horror films made during the 1950s - 1970s featuring well-known characters like Count Dracula, Baron Frankenstein, and The Mummy, Hammer film productions hooked audiences with its use of vivid color, gore, sexy damsels in nightgowns, sexy women with fangs, sexy mummy girls, sexy... you get the idea. It left an indelible aesthetic mark on horror cinema since (including Crimson Peak). Also famous for catapulting the careers of Christopher Lee and Peter Cushing or, as you might know them, Count Dooku and Grand Admiral Tarkin from Star Wars.

The Innocents (1961)

A young governess for two children becomes convinced that the house and grounds are haunted.

Frequently listed as one of the best horror films of all time, The Innocents (one of Del Toro’s direct inspirations -- clock the nightgown in the screencap) is a loose adaptation of Henry James’ seminal Gothic novella The Turn of the Screw.

So many more under the cut...

The Leopard (1963)

The Prince of Salina, a noble aristocrat of impeccable integrity, tries to preserve his family and class amid the tumultuous social upheavals of 1860's Sicily.

Another of Del Toro’s direct intertexts, which influenced Crimson Peak’s party scenes.

Suspiria (1977), the films of Mario Bava, and giallo cinema

An American newcomer to a prestigious German ballet academy comes to realize that the school is a front for something sinister amid a series of grisly murders.

A cult horror classic, Italian director Dario Argento’s Suspiria plays fast and loose with Gothic horror and fairy tale tropes, making for a slasher film quite unlike any other. Notable for its dreamlike surrealism, use of highly-stylized colorization, and sheer amounts of gore, Suspiria remains one of the most aesthetically influential horror films of all time and, looking at screenshots, you can maybe see its visual influence on films like Crimson Peak:

Guillermo Del Toro has also cited Mario Bava, another of the key figures in the golden age of Italian horror, as inspiration for his use of color and set design in Crimson Peak.

From Bava’s Black Sabbath (1963):

From Blood and Black Lace (1964):

Bava’s film, Blood and Black Lace, belongs to the giallo genre, which refers (at least, in English-speaking countries) to (largely 1970s) Italian horror thrillers/slashers notorious for their combination of intense, stylized violence and eroticism. Very much a precursor to the American slasher film.

The Shining (1980)

A family heads to an isolated hotel for the winter where an evil spiritual presence influences the father into violence, while his psychic son sees horrific forebodings from both past and future.

As film that also loosely adapts “Bluebeard,” it’s perhaps unsurprising that there are so many allusions to Stanley Kubrick’s adaptation of Stephen King’s novel of the same name in Crimson Peak.

And, man, does it have it all! Snowed in, Gothic entrapment! Threats of domestic abuse! Secrets locked away in forbidden rooms! Ghosts! So many ghosts!

Ghosts in the bathtub!

Ludicrously enormous amounts of blood! Innocent waifs with the ability to commune with the dead! Intrepid third parties who heroically make an attempt to reach the isolated Gothic hellscape to help our damsel in distress only to get immediately merc’d! It’s all here, y’all.... except the incest, of course.

Flowers in the Attic (1987)

Children are hidden away in the attic by their conspiring mother and grandmother.

Ok, this is something of a cheat, as Crimson Peak is alluding more to V.C. Andrews’ infamous novel of the same name, not the 1987 film (which is an abysmally terribly adaptation and hilariously bad flick). Anyway, abused siblings are locked away in an attic... and... well... things get all... Sharpe family values, if you know what I mean.

Bram Stoker’s Dracula (1992)

The centuries old vampire Count Dracula comes to England to seduce his barrister Jonathan Harker's fiancée Mina Murray and inflict havoc in the foreign land.

If you liked Crimson Peak, I think you’ll enjoy this too, as, like CP, this movie is a sincere horror film, but also a pastiche/celebration of the Gothic and vampire cinema. It’s visually sumptuous and very high-energy (if you didn’t like CP or Moulin Rouge!, this one is probably not for you).

Sleepy Hollow (1999)

Ichabod Crane is sent to Sleepy Hollow to investigate the decapitations of three people, with the culprit being the legendary apparition, The Headless Horseman.

This is another one that, if you liked CP, you might enjoy. Based on Washington Irving’s "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow,” Tim Burton’s film evokes a number of genres and horror aesthetics, most notably the Gothic horror flicks of the 1950s/60s, to create a kind of Hammer Horror film for American Gothic.

The Devil’s Backbone (2001) and Del Toro’s other films

After Carlos -- a 12-year-old whose father has died in the Spanish Civil War -- arrives at an ominous boys' orphanage, he discovers the school is haunted and has many dark secrets that he must uncover.

Crimson Peak is not Guillermo Del Toro’s first foray into Gothic horror, as ghost stories and dark fairy tales are very much his specialty (as we shall see again in Shape of Water later this semester). I highly recommend his ghosts-as-a-reflection-on-the-trauma-of-war film The Devil’s Backbone and his take on portal fantasy, Pan’s Labyrinth (2006), as they’re both excellent and you can see echoes between them and the effects/visuals of Crimson Peak.

Anna Strong Costume Appreciation Post: Part 2: Colonial Casuals

Okay, it’s a terrible pun, but I had to start somewhere! This is the second part of my costume nerdery re Anna’s Strong’s onscreen wardrobe. You can find the first part here:

Costume does a lot of the heavy lifting with characters in tv and film, before they even open their mouths onscreen. How someone looks, what they wear - it’s a big piece of how they’re presented, in addition to the actor’s performance and with period pieces it can help influence a character’s performance. A lot of actors often bring their own ideas of the character to the costume designer, and they work together to bring the character to life. I’d normally refer to the excellent Frock Flicks blog for this sort of commentary , but they were kinda underwhelmed by the costumes:http://www.frockflicks.com/turn-washingtons-spies-2014/

So, its a daft fluffy British nerd to the rescue! A long post on the lovely Anna Strong, and her costumes through the show.All credit for these amazing pieces goes to costume designers Donna Zakowska (seasons1-2) and Lahly Poore (seasons 3-4)

In my last post,we looked at Anna’s finer gowns. Today is going to be what I like to call the ‘colonial casuals’ that Anna wears throughout the show’s four seasons, as well as a couple of gowns I missed out on the first time round:

2:Anna’s Simpler Gowns!

A: The Purple Stripe Gown:

Sadly, a lovely gown we see once in Episode 2 and then it vanishes offscreen, never to be seen again. It’s a nice purple/grey stripe in a warm linen, very much an everyday dress. Stripes are very much Anna’s thing, it seems - (but they are also an 18th century thing. ) Anna wears it whilst doing hate-laundry for her unwanted redcoat house-guests, being uncomfortably stalked by Simcoe and urging Abe on to consider spying, all in the course of one episode!

How Historic Is It?

Nothing in purple, but this much finer silk stripe has much the same silhouette as Anna’s.

B: The Green Jacquard Dress

(Screencaps provided by the wonderful farfarawaysite.com)

This is what I like to call Anna’s “Cursed Gown”, because boy, does a lot happen to her in it! We first see it on screen in Season 1. It’s a subtle dark-green silk, but very simply made up, and we see Anna wearing it as an everyday middle-class gown - not something you’d do chores in, but appropriate to everyday lady-like activities. I actually made a list of things that happen to Anna throughout the series whilst wearing it:

1) Has to tell Abigail she’s “still” enslaved, and being sent off to work from stangers away from her son and everyone she’s ever known.

2) Almost has adulterous table-sex with Abe during that clinch mid-season 1.

3) Is thrown out of Whitehall by Mr Pompous Woodhull down below there in Season 2.

4) Immediate next scene? Anna rejects Simcoe, in a terrifying ‘oh-God what’s going-to happen’ scene that had me seriously frightened for her.

5) Gets revenge-snogged by Simcoe in front of the entire town, ruining her reputation.

6) Watching murdered redcoat corpses swing in the breeze as Simcoe begins his rivalry with Hewlett.

7) ANOTHER terrifying ‘oh-God what’s going-to happen’ scene: When captured by those Queens Rangers: the one where Anna is almost coreced into sex with a random Queens Ranger goon - before straight up STABBING him in the crotch and then shooting him, point-blank, in the FACE.

And then we don’t see it again after Season 2 finishes. Poor Anna.

(To be fair, she probably burned it afterwards, and I don’t blame her. Nothing good ever seems to happen to her when she’s wearing it.)

How Historic Is It?

This is a finer version than Anna’s with a bigger damask print, as working class dress doesn’t tend to survive as well as the gorgeous silks. But based on the style? Yes, 10/10 for accuracy. I just hope nicer things happened to the person who wore this one!

C: The Russet Jacquard Dress:

I only have one measly screencap for this one, and it doesn’t even show most of the dress! Boo. It looks identical to the Cursed Dress even down to the jacquard silk, but it’s in a warm brown-red. Anna wears it during the “Battle of Setauket” Season 1 finale episode, (discovers her friends have been lying to her about her husband being dead, and then jumps into a river in it to swim back to Abe - hum, maybe that pattern is cursed?)

How Historic Is it?

Hmm... difficult to say, based on the one screen shot! I’m assuming it’s basically the same silhouette as the green dress. I think I need to rewatch to give it a proper look.

D: The Grey Dress, with 2 Bodices:

On a fashion level, these dresses are pretty nondescript - well, they’re grey. And plain. But what I like best about them is that there’s two bodices for them - one, a jacket with Anna’s trademark peplum back and long sleeves for colder weather, and then there’s another one with shorter sleeves, ruffles and some discreet trim for when it’s warm. I find it interesting that Anna wears the grey dresses a lot when having shy, cute interactions with Hewlett. Is it suggesting a softening of her hatred for the British as simply the ‘enemy’ once she gets to knew Hewlett as a person? That’s probably reading too much into it, but never mind. I like my costume subtext.

How Historic Is It?

Honestly? I’m not sure. Sadly I struggled to find pictures for this. If we’re going 90 years later, making different interchangeable bodices for one dress was definitely a thing in the 1860s:

But from the existing gowns I’ve found online, it doesn’t appear to be a thing (or at least, nothing we have evidence for) in the 18th century. But mixing and matching skirts and jackets with petticoats is something everyone did, the same way we mix t-shirts with pants and skirts, and it suits Anna’s practical personality - as well as the fact Anna isn’t wealthy anymore. She’s going to have to make do with what she has. So I am giving the designers a pass on this one, with an added tick for practical wardrobe decisions.

And that’s it for now, folks! I don’t want to make this post TOO LONG! The final post on Anna’s wardrobe will be looking at her jackets, stays and quilted jumps.

A little info on late 19th/early 20th century photography to go along with Hana’s present for the boys.

Just as a little reminder, here’s the previous existing photo of Skitts. It does not do him justice (as he himself has admitted).

This page discusses the cost of cabinet cards (and other forms of photography) in the 1880s. I wasn’t able to find anything on the turnaround time for when a customer might expect to get their photos back after they were shot, but it’s got to be a few weeks.

Eastman Kodak’s Brownie camera was introduced in 1900, and that helped make photography more accessible to the masses, which also helped drive down the demand for professional portraits. But though less popular, some studios did hang about; this article talks about how people collected cabinet cards and their predecessors, cartes de visite, of actors and other celebrities. So now please imagine Irving Hall selling cabinet cards of Medda in a variety of poses and costumes.

Here’s a catalog from 1904 for Century cameras of Rochester, NY. These seem higher-end than the Brownie.

There isn’t a shot in which the whole of the sign is clearly visible, but it’s possible to piece together the name from a few different scenes. (Sorry for the unflattering screencap, Pie.)

Till & Cook advertise their portraiture services, as these nice young ladies notice, but they also offer daguerreotypes, which would have been, like, super outmoded by 1904. Wikipedia says of the format that “surviving examples reliably dated to between the 1860s and the 1960s are now exceedingly rare.”

$2 in 1904 would be around $54 in 2016. It’s a chunk of change, but she wouldn’t be spending so much if she hadn’t missed his birthday.
