BIOGENESIS
Readers familiar with the medically informed horror fiction of Michael Blumlein will find a most welcome equivalent in this collection by Japan’s Tatsuaki Ishiguro
AROUND A DARK CORNER
The third volume of stories by Jeani Rector follows fast on the heels of her previous collection OPEN GRAVE, which appeared in mid-2008.
APPLE OF MY EYE
This snappy paperback short story collection is a good sampling of author Amy Grech’s talents.
AND NOW THE NIGHTMARE BEGINS: THE HORROR ZINE
The latest volume from the irrepressible Jeani Rector (of AFTER DARK, OPEN GRAVE and AROUND A DARK CORNER fame) was this anthology culled from her self-created Horror Zine (www.thehorrorzine.com).
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 BRAIN PLANT Tetralogy
This unjustly forgotten product of the late-1960’s porno underground, consisting of the novels LOVELY, HEALER, OUT and GLUE FACTORY (all from 1969), is among the most complex and ambitious examples of pornographic literature — or, if you prefer fuckbooks — ever written.
THE AGONIZING RESURRECTION OF VICTOR FRANKENSTEIN AND OTHER GOTHIC TALES
One of Ligotti’s most atypical works, a short (50 page) collection of brief retellings of several iconic horror stories.
AFTER DARK
At a time when nearly every genre publication promises to “reinvent” the horror genre, it seems downright revolutionary when an author opts to deliver simple old-fashioned scares.
On DARK ROMANCES and Early 90’s SOV Horror
The video underground of the early 1990s produced its share of groundbreaking horror films.
