Download or read book The Gorehound's Guide to Splatter Films of the 1960s and 1970s written by Scott Aaron Stine and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2015-11-20 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For the uninitiated the author has obligingly supplied a definition for the slasher/splatter film: "Any motion picture which contains scenes of extreme violence in graphic and grisly detail...." For those film viewers who think this is a good thing and are more likely to select The Texas Chainsaw Massacre than The Remains of the Day, or for those who are not quite sure but are nevertheless drawn to the phantasmagoric, or for those horrified by gratuitous violence and blood for blood's sake but are researching this filmic phenomenon, this reference book provides all the gory details. From At Midnight I'll Take Your Soul Away to Zombie 2: The Dead Are Among Us, this book is an exhaustive study of the splatter films of the 1960s and 1970s. After a history of the development of the genre, the main meat of the book is a filmography. Each entry includes extensive credits, alternate names and foreign release titles; availability of the film on videocassette; availability of soundtracks and film novelization; and reviews. Extensive cross-referencing is also included.

Book Synopsis The Shrieking Sixties British Horror Films 1960 to 1969 by : Darrell Buxton
Download or read book The Shrieking Sixties British Horror Films 1960 to 1969 written by Darrell Buxton and published by . This book was released on 2010-07-30 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Shrieking Sixties sets out to document and comment upon the British horror boom of the 1960s. Edited by Darrell Buxton (U.K. horror expert and critic whose work has appeared in publications including Samhain, Creeping Flesh and Giallo Page) and written by a variety of contributors, including Mike Hodges (Fangoria), Steven West (Is It...Uncut?) and Christopher Wood (British Horror Films website), the book features informative and lively reviews of 150 creepy, macabre and downright scary movies. Additional appendices cover the short films of the era, borderline titles and a study of how the censors handled an onslaught of on-screen shudders. From Hammer's Brides of Dracula and Plague of the Zombies, to cult classics like Witchfinder General and Scream and Scream Again, The Shrieking Sixties runs the gruesome gamut. Of particular note is the book's coverage of Lindsay Shonteff's 1969 shocker Night, After Night, After Night, revealing daring new information about this ahead-of-its-time proto-slasher, and the rarely seen and even more rarely discussed The Return of Dracula, a specialist vampire movie presented in British Sign Language. In the tradition of recent successful publications such as English Gothic, Fragments of Fear and Ten Years of Terror, The Shrieking Sixties seems set to become a vital, essential addition to any fright film fan's library
Book Synopsis Horror Films of the 1970s by : John Kenneth Muir
Download or read book Horror Films of the 1970s written by John Kenneth Muir and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 680 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Independent filmmaker and horror-film scholar John Kenneth Muir says, 'Art does not exist in a vacuum. Instead, it is inexorably bound to the time period from which it sprang.' In his entertaining and scholarly filmography of over 200 films arranged by year, Muir sees the historical and social happenings of the 1970s as giving rise to the unusually high number of groundbreaking horror films of the decade, as well as the more routine ones. Following a general introduction, Muir provides a synopsis and commentary, a list of cast and crew, significant quotations by critics for each motion picture as well as by participants in the film's making when available, and stills for selected films. Interesting appendixes, notes, a bibliography, and an index are included."--"The Best of the Best Reference Sources," American Libraries, May 2003.

Book Synopsis The Fanatic's Guide to the Modern Horror Film 1960-present by : David Zeidler
Download or read book The Fanatic's Guide to the Modern Horror Film 1960-present written by David Zeidler and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Fanatic's Guide to the Modern Horror Film, 1960-Present is a work of creative non-fiction designed to provide the reader with the information of a textbook and the entertainment value of a creative piece. The body of the text features an A-Z guide of capsule reviews covering over thousand films, complete with technical credits, including director, writer, cast, MPAA rating, year of release, running time, and a personal star rating. Also included are a variety of lists, themed essays, and mini-biographies of directors that I consider to be underrated. My hope is that this thesis is informative and entertaining, scholarly but not stuffy, and versatile enough to appeal to both newcomers and long-time genre fans, with a layout that allows readers to open to any page they chose and begin reading successfully without having any prior knowledge of what has come before in the text."--Abstract.
