Euro Horror has a deeply dedicated fan following, and for good reason: the films from the genre have a decidedly different look and feel compared to films made, say, in the U.S. and UK. There are also a long list of directors who have developed a unique style to their work; Dario Argento and Mario Bava immediately come to mind.
Another Bava, Lamberto, is the son of his late father, Mario, and created his own horror oeuvre over the years, including working as assistant director of many other films, including the now-infamous, CANNIBAL HOLOCAUST.
The UK fanzine shown here today is a tribute to the Euro Horror genre. Included in this issue is a bio of Lamberto Bava and his filmography, a review of Mario Bava's PLANET OF THE VAMPIRES (Lamberto was assistant director to his father in this one), an editorial about UK film censorship and coverage of Joe D'Amato's sex romp, 11 DAYS, ELEVEN NIGHTS. The lead feature is on Dario Argento.
