The first in a series of proposed books, Trashfiend: Disposable Horror Fare of the 1960s & 1970s, picks up where its quarterly predecessor left off, whilst offering a much greater breadth of information that had been denied space in the forty-eight page magazine that preceded it. Packed with humorous criticism, obscure trivia, and slop buckets full of unadulterated nostalgia, Trashfiend is scheduled to be released in early 2008 by David Kereke's highly respected Critical Vision imprint, the publisher of the critically acclaimed publication devoted to underground culture, Headpress. In addition to space, this book will also boast eight pages of glorious color, featuring reproductions of vintage memorabilia in all their garish beauty. If you liked the magazine, I can guarantee that you'll love the book!

TRASHFIEND: DISPOSABLE HORROR FARE              OF THE 1960s & 1970s • (Spring 2008) • 48p • $19.95   Coming Soon from Critical Vision Publishing!   Excerpt from Amazon.com Editorial Review: "From trashy horror   films to grisly comic art; from lurid movie magazines to late-night   creature features; from campy monster toys to exploitive poster   art; Trashfiend takes a loving look at the whole of "disposable"   horror culture from the 1960s and 1970s. Scott Stine, author of   The Gorehound's Guides to Splatter Films, is back with this   book, which picks up where his self-published Trashfiend   magazine left off. Packed with film reviews, trivia, rare illustrations,   exhaustive technical information, and written with a humorous but   insightful flair that is sure to engage hardcore fans and curious   browsers alike, Trashfiend takes a fun albeit critical look at an oft   -overlooked genre. Included are interviews with John Stanley, ex-   horror host who also directed Nightmare in Blood and authored   The Creature Features Movie Guide; Richard Cardella, star   and co-writer of The Crater Lake Monster; Bruce Jones,   award-winning comic artist and writer best known for his work   with Warren Publishing; and Cal Bolder, star of Jesse James   Meets Frankenstein's Daughter, among other lesser known celebrities. Articles include a detailed look at black exploitation horror movies; Wally Wood's contributions to the Mars Attacks! trading cards; Pat Boyette, prolific horror comic artist and part-time filmmaker whose work helped define Charlton's line of horror comics; Rankin & Bass' animated monsters, including the cult classic Mad Monster Party; Marvel's short-lived b&w horror comics line of the 1970s; the golden age of weird fiction digests, including such titles as Magazine of Horror, Shock and Web Terror Stories; collecting 8mm film reels; the Pacific Northwest's fondly remembered late-night horror show, Nightmare Theatre, and it's host the Count; and much more. This book includes over a hundred reproductions of rare ad art, as well as vintage books, toys and magazines from the era, with eight pages of glorious, garish color."
