Download or read book Censored Screams written by Tom Johnson and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2006-07-05 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As Dracula (1931) and Frankenstein (1931) ushered in the golden age of horror films in the United States, studios and distributors were faced with a major problem in their number one overseas market: the British Board of Film Censors (BBFC) were demanding extensive cuts, enforcing age restrictions, and banning outright many of Hollywood's horror movies. The issue most often used to limit the showing of horror films was their "unsuitability" to children. With that in mind, the BBFC developed specific film codes--the "A" (for adults) and the "H" (for horrific), both of which restricted viewing to those 16 or older--and then applied them liberally. This work examines how and why horror films were censored or banned in the United Kingdom, and the part these actions played in ending Hollywood's golden age of horror.

Jack Cunningham, OTOH, prefers you carefully butchered, thoroughly de-boned, lightly seasoned, pan-fried or grilled, medium well-done, thank you very much. People come to Tinseltown for many reasons—to act, write, make movies, make music. Some just come to die. Jack learns the hard way it takes talent, luck and perseverance. So he becomes an agent instead. A killer agent. And zeros in on one special client...actress Rayna Rourke. Why wouldn't she be interested? Jack's young and handsome, with a love of glitz and glamour she's willing to overlook for the sake of her career. He drags her up the food chain, literally, exploiting the flaws of LA's entitled locals, creating his own rich cuisine from a cookbook of old movies, self-help baloney, imagination and failed dreams. The secret ingredient? It's not love. If you run into Jack, you might just survive, as long as you... DON'T GIVE INTO FEAR...
Download or read book Hollywood Animal written by Joe Eszterhas and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2010-05-05 with total page 754 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Joe Eszterhas had everything Hollywood could offer. A combination of insider and rebel, he saw and participated in the fights, the deals, the backstabbing, and all the sex and drugs. But here, in his candid and heartwrenching memoir, we see the rest of the story: the inspiring account of the child of Hungarian immigrants who, against all odds, grows up to live the American Dream. Hollywood Animal reveals the trajectory of Eszterhas's life in gripping detail, from his childhood in a refugee camp, to his battle with a devastating cancer. It shows how a struggling journalist became the most successful screenwriter of all time, and how a man who had access to the most beautiful women in Hollywood ultimately chose to live with the love of his life in a small town in Ohio. Above all, it is the story of a father and a son, and the turbulent relationship that was an unending cycle of heartbreak. Hollywood Animal is an enthralling, provocative memoir: a moving celebration of the human spirit.

Book Synopsis CONTAGION OF MADNESS by : Karen Kellock
Download or read book CONTAGION OF MADNESS written by Karen Kellock and published by CHAMPION GUIDES. This book was released on 2022-01-17 with total page 637 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I messed up when reflecting my generation. I grew up when transcending them and all their friends. What liberalism has always done is seek the wisdom of pagans. Imagine that: sinking to such low stations. They love the earth: "interplanetary coming together". Behind it is occult spirituality: demons/stormy weather. Paganism is no longer called "new age" but rather "progressive spirituality" and it's globalism/not ok.
