The Film Books Thread

[platostotal]

This one is a prerequisite for members here, however(owners will know exactly what I'm about to say) just have plenty of sello-tape, glue and blu-tac ready cause it will absolutely fall to pieces if you so much as blow/look at it in the wrong way. Still, wouldn't be without my collection of loose pages, Is it me or could this do with an update/upgrade?

found a Picador "flick book" of Frankenstein (Whale's 1 natch) and a "history" of the Frankenstein "mythos" (this is more appealing as it covers more ground...) full reviews to come as i just got these today!!

I've got the Picador "Frankenstein" and "Casablanca" too. I did have "Psycho" as well, but it seems to have vanished.

Picked up "Cinema Italiano" by Howard Hughes(!) today. Anyone read it?

Managed to keep my copy in near pristine condition. No idea how, possibly as its never on a shelf, its always about and never with things on top of it.

That's quite an achievement 'Dem', had mine for over ten years, got it on release, was a shock when the first page fell out after about 6 months, nowadays it looks like a manuscript. My copies of Gore score and Psychotronic video guide are still going strong(if a little battered)

me mythos book ( The Illustrated Frankenstein by John Stoker) is a veritable hoot as it covers nearly all versions, stage, tv and cinema versions, will finish it tonight probably, well worth the pittance i paid for it...now i have to find Duel of the Space Monsters!! harumph.

My own copy is looking more than a little worn and i've hardly been reading it on regular occasions. I think it's probably been years since i last checked out the above tome!

I'd go for a revised edition too so how about it, Brycie?
