Red Stains von Jack Hunter
If nothing else, this gross-out anthology, an early publication by England’s infamous Creation Press, definitely lives up to its billing. It contains (as the back cover proclaims) “Tales of the Darkest Biological Extremes and the Psycho-Sexual Imagination…A Lexicon of Lesions; Bible of Blood.” Not all of these 16 stories are winners--many, in fact, read like high school-level creative writing exercises. But great writing is not what this book promises.
Good book for an overview of the history of the freak show. Many notes, not a lot of references.
The House of Horror was one of the first books about Hammer Horror. As such at least the early editions have historical value. The text primarily consists of two or three sentence summaries of all the films with very little background info. The book is richly illustrated and the early editions incorporate a gallery of Hammer Glamour pictures (some of which I now have autographed).
Newer editions exchange those galleries with an essay about modern day non-Hammer Vampire movies written by Jack Hunter which is neither here nor there. As such those later editions actually have *less* to offer for the Hammer Fan.
In the subsequent years many more superior books about the subject have been written, so at the moment this is for completists only. If you need to have a copy of the book try and find some of the older editions from the 1970s and 80s.… (mehr)
