What readers are saying:
"I had a most delightful time reading your article on KING KONG. Your narrative was packed with insightful information and accompanied by wonderful photos." - Prehistoric Times reader
"The article on the history of horror comics was enlightening and fun, whether you enjoyed them as a kid or are too young to have lived in those glorious days of perusing through gruesome tales and gory illustrations." - Amazon Customer Review
"It was also a pleasure to read John Navroth’s account of the filming of 'The Lost World', the cinematic adaptation of Arthur Conan Doyle’s novel of the same name. Any article featuring an image of stop motion pioneer Willis O’Brien is fine by us." - EverythingDinosaur.com
"John M. Navroth had provided a most informative piece documenting the film “The Lost World” in an earlier edition of the magazine. He repeats the feat in this issue, this time focusing on the “King Kong” movie premiered in 1933. He provides a fascinating insight into one of the most influential monster movies of all time." - EverythingDinosaur.com
“'He Filmed Frankenstein' - fascinating, in-depth again. Loved it." - Castle of Frankenstein reader
"I especially liked . . . the scholarly report on Frankenstein cinematographer Arthur Edeson." - Castle of Frankenstein reader
