Reviews of professor Andrew Owens

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Great guy. Funny too but may come off a little opinionated. Very lecture heavy, he almost always go overtime by 1-2 minutes. Attendance matters!! His quizzes are unusually difficult and are very detailed-oriented & include niche stuff discussed during lecture. Tests are worded very intricately and difficult too. TA was amazing tho.

Dr. Owens loves what he teaches, which makes lectures engaging. I wish the class was more about the actual history of horror films than the theoretical/underlying themes. But, there's worse things I could be doing. The grading criteria for papers was a bit unclear, but it's mostly straight forward with what's being asked.

Even though I did enjoy his intriguing lectures and fun personality, the only excruciating thing about this course was the 2 exams. The midterm and final exams are unnecessarily difficult because you have to retain every single sentence from the lecture slides even down to the years of certain events. A homemade Quizlet is your best bet.
