Inside This Issue
A Vic Prezio cover fronts #38, a deep filmbook issue. The standouts: a White Zombie filmbook on the 1932 Lugosi picture often called the first true zombie film, a Curse of the Demon piece on Jacques Tourneur’s masterwork of suggestion, and FM’s early brush with Doctor Who in “The Daleks Invade England.”
Cover Spotlight
The Demon from CURSE OF THE DEMON — Tourneur's masterwork of creeping dread, here made terrifyingly visible in a cover painting that shows every awful detail the film wisely left to the imagination.
☠ Collector's Notes
An unexpected crossover lives in Issue #38: “The Daleks Invade England” is some of the earliest American coverage of Doctor Who, which earns this book a place with Whovian collectors who never otherwise touch FM. White Zombie getting the filmbook treatment — before “zombie” meant a genre — is the deeper cut.
