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?:)

Lots of great books on this thread, a lot of stuff I didn't know about, so many thanks to everyone who chimed in... I put together a list of my film books on my blog, covering all sorts of Cinema - there's some cult writings there as well. The list is too long to reprint here so check out the link below - each listing contains a link to Amazon for extra info...

same here!

Thanks guys... a lot of them were picked up second hand over the years - you can always pick up some nice stuff cheap on Amazon Market place, although someone is selling a copy of the Deep Red Horror Handbook over there for like 500 bucks - crazy ! The cost of the Bava book was a killer, I'm glad I bought it...

Managed to pick up the hardback of Profondo Argento on ebay eariler this year for £30, just noticed a new copy on amazon for £250 :eek: although Alan Jones say he's revising it.

I'm after Monster in the Movies by John Landis and Drew Struzan: Oeuvre. Hopefully father christmas will be kind to me this year!

Profondo Argento is a fine book, probably the best book about Argento... I have the Art of Darkness as well and I would advise people to stay well clear of it unless you like stuffy scholarly achedemic writing... Being a FAB book it's a thing of beauty with gorgeous stills and artwork but I hated this book...

Same here, a huge influence... Probably the book I owe the most to is the Time Out Film Guide which made me think about films...
