Reviews & Commentary by Adam Groves
THE VAST OF NIGHT
A stylish but self-indulgent alien invasion thriller set in the late 1950s
COLOR OUT OF SPACE
The January, 2020 release of this film was something of an event for horror fans. Why? Because it’s the first feature in over 25 years to be directed by Richard Stanley
LITTLE AURORE’S TRAGEDY
A 1952 film that seems destined to be the subject of a tug-of-war between those who say it’s one of the worst movies ever made and those who proclaim it a classic of Quebec cinema
VALI
A now obscure hour long “trance film” from 1965 about the late Vali Myers (1930-2003)
CAPONE
A “harrowing and true untold story” (as this film’s ad copy eagerly states) of Al Capone? Not exactly
KAIKI: UNCANNY TALES FROM JAPAN VOL. 1
This anthology, the first of three volumes, is a terrific collection of Japanese supernatural tales set during (though not always from) Japan’s Edo period of 1603-1868.
JUNK CULTURE
Writer/artist Ted McKeever can always be counted on for the unique and unexpected, things in ample evidence in this two-issue comic from the DC imprint Vertigo.
JOKO’S ANNIVERSARY
Maybe this obscure exercise in European absurdism doesn’t belong in a horror book review, but it does contain generous helpings of mutilation, cannibalism and demonic possession.
JESUS WORLD
Here we have the Christian version of WESTWORLD.
JEANNE’S JOURNAL
Those lucky few who’ve read Arlette Ryvers’ translation of JEANNE’S JOURNAL all seem to exhibit similarly awe-struck reactions, and having finally gotten around to experiencing this pervy masterwork myself, I fully understand the adulation.
