Spaghetti Nightmares

ITALIAN FANTASY-HORRORS AS SEEN THROUGH THE EYES OF THEIR PROTAGONISTS

Spaghetti Nightmares takes you on a journey through Italian films of fear, violence, dreams and the unconscious - a journey that covers a span of nearly forty years. Authors Luca Palmerini and Gaetano Mistretta have comprised the first literary work on the Italian horror film industry, allowing producers, directors, screenwriters, makeup artists, and actors an opportunity to express their views and opinions as well as their personal hopes and disappointments through a series of interviews. Each entry is accompanied by a personal up-to-date file of credits. Also included is an extensive filmography of Italian film plus numerous rare and uncensored stills from the filmmakers themselves!      Softcover  192 pages

Christopher Lee: The Authorized Screen History

The name Christopher Lee was for many years synonymous with the best in screen horror. His Count Dracula remains unrivalled and his performances in classics like The Mummy, The Face of Fu Manchu and The Wicker Man are just as striking. But Lee's film and television credits out number those of any other British star, and stretch well beyond the confines of Hammer Horror. Christopher Lee: The Authorised Screen History is the first book to chronicle Lee's entire career, including his starring role as James Bond's nemesis in The Man With the Golden Gun and his recent appearances in The Lord of the Rings and Star Wars trilogies.  Compiled with the co-operation of Christopher Lee, and featuring a foreword by Star Wars creator George Lucas, this is the definitive guide to one of cinema's last true legends.    Hardcover  272 pages  $18.00
