Content Includes:
The Hunchback of Notre Dame -- Take sanctuary in CM's exploration of the RKO 1939 classic and Charles Laughton's affecting, timeless performance. The film still stands up remarkably well today and is beloved the world over by fans of horror movies and literature alike.
Stop-Frame Fantasy Frights -- Pioneers such as Willis O'Brien and Ray Harryhausen brought the impossible to life in a new branch of special effects, with the animated antics of King Kong and Mighty Joe Young breathing life into some of classic monster cinema's most revered characters.
Vampires are Universal, Part 2 -- Stakes at the ready as CM continues its look at the beastly bloodsuckers of Hollywood yore. Picking up where they left off in issue 8, they delve into the delights of Dracula's Daughter, Son of Dracula and The Return of the Vampire, just for starters.
Peter Cushing -- CM's biography super trouper turns its reverent rays on one of British gothic horror cinema's best-loved stars. CM takes a look at the life and career of this undoubted national treasure and superlative character actor.
Hush, Hush, Sweet Charlotte -- CtM pays tribute to Robert Aldrich's monochrome masterpiece of horror and suspense as they dare to knock on the door of the Hollis house. With spectacular performances from Bette Davis, Olivia de Havilland, Joseph Cotten, Agnes Moorehead and Cecil Kellaway, this is '60s psychological horror at its finest.
Isle of the Dead -- Join CM as they visit the island of death and pestilence in search of a vorvolaka. You can cut Val Lewton's atmosphere with a surgical scalpel, thanks in part to Boris Karloff's wonderfully anguished realisation of General Pherides -- not for the faint-hearted or claustrophobic.
And so much more besides!
