Welcome to the new Montreal Monstrum Society website! News and info can be found on this page. We hope you'll enjoy exploring our new site, and do let us know what you think. 

MMS co-coordinators, Mario DeGiglio-Bellemare and Kristopher Woofter lead us into the Winter 2018 semester with our eyes wide shut, to focus on one of horror’s most important and least-discussed elements with The Music of Horror, an experimental "listening" course. Starts 23 January.
 
Ellen Freeman follows with three weeks of Shock Horror. Focusing on Tom Six’s three Human Centipede films (2009, 2011, 2015), Freeman explores the moral-emotional implications  of moviegoers’ responses to these films as “disturbing.” Starts 13 February.
 
Next up is the Monstrum Brood, Vol. 2, the second in our series of lectures, where we invite past and current students to take on a class devoted to interests of their own. In this instalment, longtime MMS student and friend, Marianne Desautels discusses subway horror and Ryuhei Kitamura's 2008 film Midnight Meat Train. One evening: 20 March.
 
Wrapping up the year is University of Montréal professor Bernard Perron’s three-week French-language course, Bienvenue dans le monde des jeux vidéo d'épouvante (Welcome to the World of Scary Video Games), a short introduction to the history of horror video games from Haunted House (1981) to Resident Evil VII (2017). [Courte introduction de l'histoire des jeux vidéo d'épouvante de Haunted House (1981) à Resident Evil VII (2017). Analyse de quelques stratégies utilisées par les concepteurs de jeu pour faire peur au joueur.] Trois semaines: 27 Mars, 3 & 10 Avril.
 
All Miskatonic-Montréal courses are hosted by Microcinema Etre (6029a, ave du Parc). Course dates are Tuesday nights, from 7pm to 10pm. A suggested donation of $7 per lecture can be paid at the door. A significantly discounted rate of $50 for an entire semester can be paid at the door.
