Reviews & Commentary by Adam Groves
MAD FOXES
If you like trashy exploitation this 1981 German jaw-dropper is ideal viewing, being a hilarious and appalling spectacle that must be seen to be disbelieved
THE MACHINE
A much dumber than average brain-switch chiller from France. It contains one shocking sequence but is otherwise fatally clichéd and inert.
MACABRE
This gruesome and depraved yet subtle, atmospheric Italian horror fest was the directorial debut of Lamberto Bava, son of the legendary “Father of Italian horror” Mario Bava
VOICES WITHIN
Remember the Sally Field starring, multiple personality themed, based on fact small screen thriller SYBIL? Well, here’s its vastly inferior counterpart, a 1990 TV movie based on the harrowing story of Trudi Chase, a woman who, due to unimaginable childhood abuse, lived with 18 different personalities.
VIY
An astounding Nikolai Gogol inspired achievement in old-school horror
AN EMPORIUM OF AUTOMATA
A most welcome reprinting of a collection originally published in 2010 by Ex Occidente Press, who specialize in extremely expensive limited editions.
AMARCORD
Amarcord is the Romagnolo word for “I Remember.” That’s appropriate, as memory, and its every conceivable fictional permutation, is the subject of this collection of ten thematically linked stories.
THE ALTERNATIVE
This British novel is packaged like one of the innumerable horror potboilers that debuted in the early 1970s (complete with an imposing front cover reference to ROSEMARY’S BABY), but it’s actually a far more thoughtful and intellectual work.
ALRAUNE (Book)
ALRAUNE is probably the late, great German author Hanns Heinz Ewers’ masterpiece.
ALL HALLOW’S EVE
A medium-strength Richard Laymon novel. It’s quite typical of his eighties-era novels (particularly NIGHT SHOW and FUNLAND) with its alternately horny and murderous cast of teens afoot in the latter days of October, inter-spaced with equally questionable adults and an unseen killer.
