From the production team:
MONSTER! #26 definitely has a more spicy Hispanic flavor than usual. There's Mexican monster-wrestling movies (LADRON DE CADAVERES, 1956), monster movies from Chile (EL HUESPED [2003]) and Spain (GRAVEYARD OF HORROR [1971], THE DRACULA SAGA [1973]), plus bios of lesser-sung actors Wolf Ruvinskis (portrayer of monster-fighter Neutron, The Masked Marvel) and Narciso Ibanez Menta (The Spanish Man of a Thousand Faces), both of whom deserve more coverage in the English-language fan press.
In addition, we've got a long and loving look back at gory monster pulp novels, and other movies covered this issue include THE UNNAMABLE (1988) and its sequel THE UNNAMABLE II (1993), NIGHT OF THE CREEPS (1986), HAXAN: WITCHCRAFT THROUGH THE AGES (1922), HANSEL & GRETEL: WITCH HUNTERS (2013), DAWN OF THE MUMMY (1981), BRAIN DAMAGE (1988), ROCK & RULE (1983), the JEEPERS CREEPERS films, and more recent fare as MIDNIGHT HAIR (2014), ZOMBIE SHARK, the POLTERGEIST reboot, FRANKENSTEIN, TREMORS 5: BLOODLINES (all 2015) and Richard Mansfield's newest shadow puppet short, THE STORY OF A DISAPPEARANCE AND AN APPEARANCE. All this and plenty of video availability information in our back pages, too.
Color cover, B&W inside. 124 pages. 8 1/2 x 5 1/2 inches. Intended for mature readers, in our opinion.
Shipping Note: This paperback weighs substantially more than a magazine, so depending what if any other items are ordered, we may choose to ship it via Media Mail.
