Saturday night's double feature offers two films that illustrate the range of the. horror genre. The Haunting (1965) is based on the novel by Shirley Jackson. Vith meticu lous direction by Robert Wise, the film builds suspense through fine performances by Julie Harris, Claire doom and Richard Johnson. A truly high-class horror flick, The Haunting is a prime example of how Holly wood can create memorable entertainment under- the guidance of its best profess ionals. .... : In contrast, The Night of the Living Dead (196S) is described by film critic David Maltin as "the most horrifying, stomach-churning charnel in the history of horror". Made on an extremely low budget, The Night of the living Dead has acquired a .strong cult following among genre experts, who hail it as one of the greatest of all horror films. The double features begin tonight and -Saturday at 7 pjn. in the Nebraska Union Centennial Room. Seating is Fillmore style. Admission is $2, which includes popcorn. By Micfisel Zsngsri Bob Dylan has never been one to put his arm gently around you and show you the errors of your ways, whether it be about loves gone by or his own past. He is about as subtle as a two-by-four to the fore head, and twice as potent. When Dylan sings, "... the idiot wind, blowing every time you move your mouth ,w you get the impression that he is less than thrilled with his lady. Songs like "Dirge, with the classic lines "... I don't recall a single thing you ever done for me, except pat me on the back one time when I was on my knees . . . and "Positively 4th Street, are so dripping with bL: that you wonder why Dylan didnt pick up a rifle long ago and open up in the nearest crowded subway. . Obviously Dylan's lyrics go much deeper and into different areas than just his "I hate myself for loving you songs. . His influences are varied, everything from the sureal- after midnight istic poetry of Rimbauld to the late gangster Joey GaUo's demise in a Little Italy restaurant. Even if you don't like riirn, Dylan's influence on just about everything of worth in popular music is something at which one can't scoff.

Howard Woody, a University of South Carolina art professor, did not get his atmospheric sky sculp tures launched because the FAA" requires 50 per cent sky visibility. A higher percentage of cloudiness would make the sculptures a hazard to aircraft, the FAA said. The sculpture flights have been rescheduled for today at noon and 2 p jn. in the Sheldon Sculpture Garden. Set-up will begin an hour before the launch and the public is invited to view the pre-Iaunch activities.

EamoyrasK Review by Vi3 Huffman Kemoupsska (Hollywood and Vine) is an epic love story, told with an intense and beautiful style. The film is the work of French-Canadian director Claude Jutra, and the stunn ing locations in Quebec are used to maxi mum effect. Genevieve Eujold gives a magnificent performance as the young heroine around whom the passions swirL She is forced by her family at an early age, to marry a rich but vile neighbor and returns to her home. . The young woman's passionate nature attaches itself to the local doctor (Richard Jordan) and the films spells out this violent triansle to its violent conclusion. The recreation of the French Canada of the last century is beautifuSy done ia the Cm. The settings have the look and feel of total authenticity and the attention to various period detaf a is meticulous. Jutra uses a slow, dalierate style to espbre the characters. Kctzoltzz erpedaHy reward for the discerning vlr.ver ha lacks for psychological com- &s!ft beauty is expbited by Jutra ia such a manner that there is little difficul ty understanding the intense fselln-s of is stunning whose drunken ess and irresponsibility are set in stark contrast to the intense doctor (Jordan) who ministers to the needs of the local poor. Seasonal changes are employed to give the film its measured and deliberate pacing. The lush summer is beautifully counter pointed by a harsh Canadian winter, and both are photographed with equally dazzling clarity. The winter scenes are especially notable. Jutra and his cinematographer have colla borated on some stunning snowscapes. The background plays an integral part in Kamoursshs, but it never intrudes on the development of the powerfully romantic triangle. The passions of Kemoursska are intense ly consuming and reach their logically vio lent conclusion with the bloody confron tation of Leotarde and Jordan. Th violence of this sequence is shacking and graphic, but it is entirely tustiTt? h FhIL7pe Leotarde (as Eujold's brutal husband) will be remembered by foreign fa audhnces for his excellent work ia Akin Tanner's IIHI cf tte ft'oril la JTcna.7ss.t2, Leotard displays his range and creates a totally despicable character context of the destructive forces nrt. ing between the characters.
