Book excerpt: From the author of SYNTHESIZERS AND SAXOPHONES: MONTAGE POP AND MUSICAL MOVIES OF THE 1980s comes a celebration of late-1980s horror: CLASS OF 1988: FRIGHT FILM ANNUAL!When you mention 80s horror films, the mind conjures up images of noisy home video transfers, or a title sequence drenched with skippy dropouts that send the soundtrack into a buzzy frenzy. Shock cuts of rubber heads frozen in a scream, neon blue floodlights masquerading as moonlight - junk food for some, but for some a cinematic delicacy. The 80s was such a seminal decade for horror films that it'd take more than one book, and so Big Retro Video has started with one of the biggest years for scary cinema, 1988.By the end of the 1980s, big-screen horror had gone mainstream, with popular franchises churning out numbered sequels with bigger-than-ever budgets. But by the early 1990s, computer graphics spectacle moved in to take over the multiplex, and we never went back. CLASS OF 1988: FRIGHT FILM ANNUAL captures that magic moment when horror flicks got the popular attention they deserved, and the technology of prosthetics, animatronics, and gore make-up had reached a kind of zenith where makeup artists and horror actors alike could gain name recognition and a rock-star like following.Included in the book are articles on almost 40 different movies, with capsule reviews, synopses, budgets and box office and behind-the-scenes facts! Not content with a simple rating system, the book uses a seven-stage evaluation that lets fans hone in on the exact type of movie they like the most - with categories like Rubber, Raunch, and Rock and Roll!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Part of the Pop Goes the Decade series, this book looks at one of the most memorable decades of the 20th century, highlighting pop culture areas such as film, television, sports, technology, advertising, fashion, and art. All in the Family. Barry Manilow, Donna Summer, and Olivia Newton-John; Styx, Led Zeppelin, and The Jackson Five. Jaws, Rocky, The Exorcist, and The Rocky Horror Picture Show. Pop Goes the Decade: The Seventies takes a sweeping look at all of the cultural events and developments that made the 1970s a highly memorable era of change and new thinking. This book explores the cultural and social framework of the 1970s, focusing on pop culture areas that include film, television, sports, technological innovations, clothing, and art. A timeline highlights significant cultural moments, and a "controversies in pop culture" section explores the pop culture items and moments of the 1970s that shocked the public and challenged underlying social mores. The book also includes a "Game Changers" section that identifies the public figures and celebrities who had the largest influence during the decade, a technology section that explains how media, news, and culture were shared, and a "Legacy" section that identifies concepts and events from the 1970s that still affect Americans today.

This book was released on 2011-11-11 with total page 609 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The obits. It’s the first section many of us turn to when we open the paper, not to see who died, but rather to find out about who lived to discover the interesting lives of people who’ve made a mark. A new annual that collects nearly 300 of the best of The New York Times obituaries from the previous year, The Obits Annual 2012 is a compelling, addictive-as-salted-peanuts “who’s who” of some of the most fascinating people of the twentieth century. Written by top journalists each entry is a jewel, a miniature, nuanced biography filled with the facts we love to read, with the surprise and serendipity of life. There’s David L. Wolper, the producer of Roots—and the story of how he got his start purchasing film footage from Sputnik. The jazz singer, Abbey Lincoln, and her change from glamorous performer—she owned a dress of Marilyn Monroe’s—to civil rights activist (she burned the Monroe dress). Owsley Stanley, the quirky perfecter of LSD, who blamed a heart attack on the fact that his mother made him eat broccoli as a child. Patricia Neal—known by most as a movie star, but her real life, filled with tragedy, adversity, and incredible professional ups and downs, is almost a surreal play of triumph and tragedy. Arranged chronologically, like the obits themselves, it’s a deliciously random walk through the recent past, meeting the philosophers, newsmen, spies, publishers, moguls, soul singers, baseball managers, Nobel Prize winners, models, and others who’ve shaped the world.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Controversial yet beloved among audiences, Christmas-themed horror movies emerged in the early 1970s and gained a notorious reputation with Silent Night, Deadly Night (1984), depicting Santa as an ax-wielding maniac. Some parents and conservative groups condemned the film, while others embraced the portrayal of Yuletide as a backdrop for fear and dread. Drawing on interviews with directors, producers, special effects artists, photographers and actors, this book celebrates the sordid, colorful history of the Christmas horror subgenre. Psycho Santa films such as Christmas Evil (1980) and 3615 code Pere Noel (1989) are examined, along with "Yule-Die" slashers like The Dorm that Dripped Blood (1982), Black Christmas (1974) and Silent Night, Bloody Night (1972). Commercial successes like Gremlins (1984) and Rare Exports: A Christmas Tale (2010) are covered, as well as more recent releases such as Better Watch Out (2016), Red Christmas (2016) and Deathcember (2019). Rare photographs, promotional materials and an annotated filmography are provided.

Book excerpt: Tulsa, Oklahoma might not be the first place one considers in the history of American music but this city in northeastern Oklahoma has a rich and diverse musical heritage that deserved to be celebrated. You'll learn how Tulsa musicians and bands influenced the worlds of rock and roll, country, jazz, blues, R&B, hip hop, rap and so much more. There is the happy toe-tapping Western Swing played by Bob Wills and the Texas Playboys. The blend of rock and blues and jazz and swamp-style pop championed by Leon Russell and J.J. Cale. The danceable funk of The Gap Band and the smooth R&B of that group's lead singer, Charlie Wilson. Then there are country music stars like Garth Brooks and Zach Bryan. And Tulsa being a turning point for jazz legend Count Basie. Tulsa Sounds: Contributions to American Music is a must-read for anyone that loves music and wants to learn more about the rhythm of life found in the American Heartland.
