by Stephen Thrower Between 1970 and 1985, American exploitation movies went berserk. With censorship rules relaxed and the gate to excess wide open, horror offered a vibrant alternative to the mainstream of American cinema, from the drive-ins of Texas to the grindhouses of New York. Massively popular around the world, these films touted a combination of mind-bruising violence, weird sex, and drug-soaked delirium. These films shocked the conscience and added to America's rich film history, but they have defied cinematic study until now. Nightmare USA explores the development of America's subterranean horror film industry, spotlighting some of the wildest films imaginable. Stephen Thrower has explored the attics and cellars of American cinema, delved beneath its floorboards, peered between the cracks in the walls, searching for the strangest, most exotic cinematic lifeforms.

by Jasper Sharp Behind the Pink Curtain focuses on the art and industry of one of the most notorious sectors of Japanese filmmaking, the erotic Pink Film, or pinku eiga genre, and the closely related Roman Porno films produced by Nikkatsu studios from 1971 to 1988. From the early 60s onwards major Japanese film studios and independent producers alike have kept up a conveyor belt level of output of pornographic features intended purely for cinema release. Just how close are the links between the arthouse and the grindhouse in Japan? Based on extensive interviews with many of the leading figures in the field, Behind the Pink Curtain is a colorful and exhaustive trawl through Japan's most vibrant and prolific filmmaking sector.

(W) Scott Stine From low-budget horror films to grisly comic art, from lurid movie magazines to late-night creature features, from campy monster toys to exploitive poster art, Trashfiend takes a loving look at 'disposable' horror culture from the 1960s and 1970s. Packed with reviews, trivia, rare illustrations, exhaustive technical information, and written with a humorous but insightful flair that is sure to engage both hardcore fans and the curious alike, author Scott Stine picks up where his self-published Trashfiend magazine left off for a fun, albeit critical look at an often overlooked genre that is considered trash!

(W) Nigel Wingrove, Marc Morris In the early 1980's video was a new technology that allowed people the freedom to view films in the privacy of their own homes. The Art of the Nasty explains and the media furor, fear, and the rush for political legislation that greeted the arrival of uncensored horror films on video in the UK. The hysteria was generated and fuelled as much by the sleeves and marketing as by the films themselves. The Art of the Nasty reproduces almost 400 pre-certificate video covers in all their lurid glory. (immagine) Categoria: Books: novel/sci fi/horror
