If you want UK video art and heaps more images then go for the reprinted Art of the nasty.

The Art of the Nasty is indeed an awesome book, Mark - kudos to you and Nigel on that. :nod: I haven't been able to put it down for months! My Mum was even hooked on it when she came to stay - and she's a Daily Mail reader! :shocked: :pound:

Looks awesome.

I still haven't got the art of the nasty either

Christmas brings money and presents....

I finished perusing my copy of PG:TLAOTVB last night and it's not too bad but definitely not in the same superb league as The Art Of The Nasty and Shock!Horror!.

I found author Jacques Boyreau's introduction pretty confusing for the most part and the above two titanic U.K. publications knock spots off this new U.S. tome imo.

That said, i don't regret buying the volume and it's a decent trip down memory lane more for American audiences than British viewers. But i already knew that when i bought the book so i was well aware what i was letting myself in for.:)

Has anyone here ever read Brad Steiger's The Werewolf Book? I borrowed it from my uni library and I LUV IT! There's just soooo much information about werewolf films, werewolf stories as well as ancient traditions and beliefs. I simply is one of the best and most interesting books I have EVER read! HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

It lead me onto a book called Wolf: An Anthropological Interpretation of Sadism, Masochism, and Lycanthropy - which is basically a theological and academic book on the reasons why humanity 'enjoys' and craves pain as much as pleasure - linking it to ancestral memories that live in our collective memories. Fascinating stuff! It's gone straight into my Amazon wishlist!

AND this has led me to another book (a work of fiction this one) called The Cannibal Within - apparantly it's one of the single most disturbing and gory books ever written and from the extracts I've read on Amazon I'd have to agree. It's soooooooooo disturbing!

I just had to buy it!

Check them out guys - amazing stuff there! AMAZING!

Think this'll be a xmas pressie to myself! :bananasuit:

yeah, that looks fun. Love the way the book's been designed too.
But at 100 covers the thing (as all these cover books are) is grotesquely small scale.

I wish someone would make a 'Nightmare USA' sized book of these.

Just got this today.
It was a bargain at Amazon but the price has gone up again now.
I've started reading a bit and it looks interesting,better than I thought it would be after reading a few of the reviews.
Nice size as well.
