Judging from a few scant TV appearances Newman seems a nice enough guy and if i recall rightly his 1988 tome Nightmare Movies was the first book on horror films i picked up once i got seriously into the genre. Not a bad publication with much more text than stills and a decent read despite being outdated. |

His commentaries with that other bloke (Name escapes me) on the r2 HALLOWEEN II and THE DEAD ZONE were quite entertaining.

I used to bump into Kim Newman at various horror festivals. Always looking fab in his bling waistcoats, flock coats and top hats! It's a ****ing disgrace he's shoved into a dungeon! It's a tragic morsel thrown out to fans of non-Hollywood flicks that aren't whored around by journo pimps. I miss the days of endless fanzines. Where the ****ing 'dungeon'....was the whole damn house! |

Unless you subscribe to Shivers or Fangoria,then these other mags offer bugger all to genre fans. We're supposed to be grateful that every Halloween they pump out a 'feature' using the same horror films year after year...

I stopped buying the mainstream mags about 2 years ago. Fed up with them putting down most old horror/exploitation fiulms but praising the latest hollywood shit. ASnd the worst thing is a lot people go by their every word. They need to realise thats it is OK to like old/obscure horror. |

Couldn't have said it better myself and they say the old ones are the best ones! |
