Original Japanese Godzilla Novels

Posted in Books, Godzilla, Japan, Kaiju, Monsters with tags , on August 4, 2023 by chrisdsav

The original Godzilla Japanese Novels are coming to Japan I been waiting for these for a long time. For more information check out the article here

Although the Godzilla films have been analyzed in detail by cultural historians, film scholars, and generations of fans, Shigeru Kayama’s two Godzilla novellas—both classics of Japanese young-adult science fiction—have never been available in English. This book finally provides English-speaking fans and critics the original texts with these first-ever English-language translations of Godzilla and Godzilla Raids Again. As human activity continues to cause mass extinctions and rapid climatic change, Godzilla provides a fable for the Anthropocene, powerfully reminding us that nature will fight back against humanity’s onslaught in unpredictable and devastating ways

The New England Comic Book Store Owners

Posted in Books, Comic Books with tags , , , , on January 28, 2023 by chrisdsav

Working on a new boo coming out late this year hopefully. A book about the comic book store owners of New England. A story of who they are their history where they came from why did they open their stores.

Currently we have That’s Entertainment, Bedrock Comics, Hall Of Comics The Comic Shop and more joining.

Wanted to look into why there are so many comic shops in the new England area it’s a great collection of stories from people who started small businesses in these 6 states. Got the idea after my first book The New England Horror Film Makers was finished and after listening to a book about comic shops history around the country called Comic Shop: The Retail Mavericks Who Gave Us a New Geek Culture. I said as soon as the New England Horror book was done this would be the next book.

Hellraiser Bloodlines Screenplay

Posted in Books, entertainment, Goth, horror with tags , , , on July 19, 2022 by chrisdsav

I am a casual Fan of Hellraiser 4 Bloodlines it was the FIRST and only Hellraiser movie I ever saw in theaters and coincince it was the last large commercial film of the series to be in theaters. I have this book and love it and hope to have Peter on the show to chat about it coming up.

You may well be a fan of the first two or three Hellraiser movies who found that your relationship with this fourth one was … well, what shall we say? Complicated, maybe? You may, if you were of a kindly and forgiving nature, have found the film somewhat interesting, even occasionally entertaining, but you probably also found it confusing, felt that something just wasn’t right about it. You may have noticed the director’s name—Alan Smithee—and googled it, and discovered that Alan Smithee doesn’t exist, that the name is a pseudonym sometimes applied to movies that have been significantly troubled during production and post-production by crises both financial and creative. Whilst you’ll never get to see a Director’s Cut of Hellraiser: Bloodline, you can read in this book what was supposed to be…
