Classic Monsters Magazine Issue 16: Horror Film and Horror Movie Magazine

Description: Classic Monsters of the Movies issue 16 is another beautiful journey through classic horror cinema, taking in beloved favourites and lesser-known gems with a combination of class-leading image reproduction, information and commentary that’s made it a hit around the world. The front cover image is a breathtaking Daniel Horne oil painting of Victor Pascow from 1989’s Pet Sematary, and we celebrate the 30th anniversary of the terrifying original movie with a detailed feature on how Stephen King’s novel came to the screen. In a Classic Monsters exclusive, Brad Greenquist shares his memories of playing the grotesque guardian angel, while we explore the movie’s enduring significance in horror culture. Of course, classic horror fans love this movie for another of its stars too, the endearingly enigmatic Fred Gwynne as Jud Crandall - Brad also fondly recounts his experiences of working with this legend. Cat lovers among you will adore the Killer Kitties feature in this issue. Pet Sematary’s creepy Church is just the beginning in a rundown of the freaky felines that have scared us, warned us and sometimes even rescued us throughout the history of horror movies, from Little Maria’s kitten in Frankenstein (1931) to the sinister sentry of Hammer’s The Shadow of the Cat (1961) and beyond. Meanwhile, actor Holmes Herbert is the subject of this issue’s in-depth biography - his extensive body of work took in the likes of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde (1931), Mark of the Vampire (1935) and The Ghost of Frankenstein (1942) to name but a few. Medicine and mysticism take a turn for the gruesome as we delve into the history of Bel-Air Productions, who among other things brought us the mystery of The Black Sleep, the 1956 gothic horror that always makes for exciting viewing. And more recently, Hammer put a fresh spin on ancient mythology in 1964’s The Gorgon – our discussion of this much-loved niche thriller is packed with information and gorgeous stills that bring this eerie spin on classical folklore to life. Whatever age of horror cinema you love the most, you’ll find it in issue 16 of Classic Monsters of the Movies.
