Two new faces of menace share Issue #157’s cover — Frank Langella’s Dracula and Richard Kiel’s Jaws — and both get the feature treatment: a “Dracula 1979” preview and a Kiel interview. Forry weighs the Alien phenomenon, answers “Why Christopher Lee Is Mad at Me,” and turns up as an alien astronaut in Starstruck; a Battlestar Galactica episode guide and an Amityville Horror preview round it out.
Two color stills share this cover — Frank Langella's brooding Dracula from the 1979 Universal film, and Richard Kiel's steel-toothed Jaws from MOONRAKER, the Bond villain who crossed over into horror fandom.
Langella-Dracula material holds steady appeal for vampire collectors, and Issue #157’s Richard Kiel interview pulls the Bond crowd across the aisle. The Forry-vs-the-address-leak piece is a deep cut of fandom lore.
