ABSTRACT: At the dawn of the early sound-film era, Eisenstein worried about the prospect of sound merely duplicating images, and such concern was realized during the early years of the talkies. One exception, however, was the use of disembodied sound in Hollywood monster horror films. This aspect of early classical horror cinema has been curiously neglected or understated by critics, including Eisenstein himself. The aim of this article is to foster a renewed appreciation of this aural technique by showing that contrapuntal use of off-screen sound was present in key scenes of essentially all Hollywood monster horror films in the early 1930s.

震撼听觉：早期声音时代好莱坞怪兽恐怖电影中的出色声音

摘要：在早期声音电影时代的曙光中，爱森斯坦（Eisenstein）担心声音只能复制图像的前景，而这种担忧在对讲机的早期就已经意识到。但是，一个例外是好莱坞怪兽恐怖电影中使用了非实体声音。包括爱森斯坦本人在内的评论家都好奇地忽略或低估了早期古典恐怖电影的这一方面。本文的目的是通过证明在1930年代初期基本上所有好莱坞怪兽恐怖电影的关键场景中都存在对屏幕外声音的反冲使用，以培养对这种听觉技术的重新认识。
