Monster! #17: May 2015 - Our BIGGEST Issue Ever!!!

At 118 pages, this is our biggest issue yet! Our title review this ish is Richard Glenn Schmidtâ€™s affectionate appraisal of the notorious Euro-trash cinema classic LADY FRANKENSTEIN (1971). Daniel Best gives us â€œFrankenstein, The Australian Connection (Pt. 2)â€, the latest instalment of his fascinating ongoing look back at governmental censorship imposed Down Under on movies in Universalâ€™s Frankenstein series; this issue, he mostly discusses events from the 1940s. In â€œCracking THE GLASSHEADâ€, pop culture archaeologist Stephen R. Bissette cracks a long-lost late-â€™90s indie horror ultra-rarity wiiiide open, really digging deep into the archives in the process. This M! exclusive includes a never-before-published interview with the elusive movieâ€™s director, Matthew Smith. But wait: this is only Part 1 of the article, and thereâ€™s still more to follow in MONSTER! #18! Elsewhere in this our 17th issue, howlinâ€™ Troy Howarth contributes the second and final part of his personally-slanted article â€œMy Favorite Lycanthropesâ€, in which he pits those oft-compared 1981 wolfman flicks AN AMERICAN WEREWOLF IN LONDON and THE HOWLING against each other in full-on furry fury! Tim Paxton dwells at some length on the ZAPATLELA â€œkiller dollâ€ duo (1993/2013) from India, while Steve Fenton covers two zany Mexi-monster parodies, EL CASTILLO DE LOS MONSTRUOS (1958) and LOCURA DE TERROR (1960). Our hefty review section also includes write-ups on NIGHT OF THE BLOOD BEAST (1958), THE BONE SNATCHER (2003), HUMANOIDS FROM THE DEEP (1980), THE MANITOU (1978), the DECOYS duo (2004/2007), THE BORROWER (1991), CARRY ON SCREAMING (1966), DARKLIGHT (2004), SEPTIC MAN (2013), CLOWN (2014), plus the Hong Kong horror THE PARK (2003) and another Indian horror, DARR @ THE MALL (2014). Other contributors to this issue are John L. Vellutini (a former M! contrib from the zineâ€™s original 1980s incarnation, making a belated return to the fold), as well as Neil Dâ€™Silva, Michael Elvidge, Eric Messina, John Harrison, Christos Mouroukis, and, last but by no means least, Les Moore. As always, in-depth video availability for films covered is included in our back pages.
