A new class, Cult Film and Television (CICO324), is being offered this semester. The class is a combination Cinema and Communication course taught by Professor Paul Zinder, Chair of the Department of Communication and English at AUR.
Thus far, Prof. Zinder has covered cult horror auteurs such as producer Val Lewton and director David Cronenberg, sexploitation director Doris Wishman, blaxploitation films, and midnight movie directors John Waters and Ed Wood. Now that the first half of the class is complete, Professor Zinder will begin teaching about cult television, a topic which he has written extensively about, including a book chapter on Veronica Mars which was published in February 2011.
