Ignore that, It HAS been reprinted - result :lol: Ordered, £17.00

i caught up with Jonathan Rigby on Tim Lucas's FB page and harangued him for giving one of my favourite films, Possession, such a roasting in Euro Gothic. i told him i'd forgive him if he gave us American Gothic II and he gave me a thumbs up :clap:

... lol he writes one about every 5 years i think so not long to wait... :pray:

World Gone Wild: A Survivor's Guide to Post-Apocalyptic Movies Hardcover

Just received this wonderful hardcover book on all thing post apocslyptic

Quote:

A loving ode to a universal genre of film. An entire subculture of end-of-the-world themes was spawned from films like The Road Warrior, Escape From New York, and The Terminator. While those films are still being emulated today, film makers all around the world continue to produce radically unique films with startling perspectives of humanity facing the end of all things. This book offers pointers and a frame of reference on how the characters behaved when their worlds were on the brink of desolation. It covers the genre's biggest blockbusters like The Hunger Games, I Am Legend, Oblivion and World War Z, while devoting equal time and attention to smaller, more obscure films that really deserve to be discovered. Containing over 800 movie reviews, 60 exclusive interviews with filmmakers and actors who've made films in the genre, and a vast sub-genre index, this is a chronicle of humanity's struggles through nuclear war, global natural disasters, and the zombie apocalypse in film.

I bought this gorgeous hardback book on Sharon Tate this week.

It's a stunning pictorial tribute.

That looks fantastic Dem. :nod:

Thanks Dave Boy. It is.

276 pages and not a mention of the scum that murdered her. It's full of beautiful photos of her from her life as a model and from films like The Fearless Vampire Killers.

Picked this up in the local 'The Works' book and art supplies type shop thingy.
