New Literary Reviews!
ALRAUNE By HANNS HEINZ EWERS:
The legendary German novel about the exploits
of a soulless woman. After nearly a century this remains a powerful,
transgressive work.
ANARCHY
AND ALCHEMY--THE FILMS OF ALEJANDRO JODOROWSKY
By BEN COBB:
A long overdue volume that takes an in-depth look at the films of
Alejandro Jodorowsky, the cinema's premiere wild man!
DARK
HARVEST By NORMAN PARTRIDGE:
The finest novel of 2007, a fast, violent yet surprisingly soulful account of
madness and the supernatural in America's heartland.
GOD OF THE RAZOR
By JOE R. LANSDALE:A reprinting of the Joe Lansdale
classic THE NIGHTRUNNERS together with several short stories inspired by the
novel--a must!
Commentary:
2007:
THE YEAR IN LITERARY HORROR:
The second annual Fright.com overview of the previous
year's books, this one featuring short reviews of novels by Stephen King, Clive
Barker, Robert McCammon and many others!
New Movie Reviews!
ALLIGATOR:
A far above-average JAWS wannabe from the early eighties, and still the
state-of-the-art in
monster movie madness!
ALRAUNE:
A true silent-movie classic that wreaks an unforgettalby
perverse twist on the age-old
Frankenstein formula.
THE GIRL NEXT
DOOR: From one of the toughest, most uncompromising horror novels of all
time comes this
profoundly disturbing motion picture.
INVASION
OF THE BODY SNATCHERS:
Werner Herzog’s remake of F.W. Murnau’s silent classic, which this new
NOSFERATU actually outdoes--really!
Commentary:
JAPANESE
CYBER-HORROR:An
examination of the Japanese cyberpunk genre, consisting of dark, bloody films
like TETSUO and PINNOCHIO 964.
Et cetera:
Stories about madness, paranoia, and alternate realities. Each story new, different, weirder than hell.
