Published

Eight films. One book.

Set to launch at the Edinburgh Horror Con on May 12, author Bryn Curt James Hammond’s The Complete History of The Howling will be an in-depth look at the entirety of The Howling franchise, which kicked off with Joe Dante’s film in 1981.

It promises to teach you “all that’s left to know” about the franchise.

The book, from UK’s Miami Fox Publishing, “presents the complete account of one of the most popular and iconic legendary film franchises in cinema history. When The Howling premiered in 1981, the film introduced cinema-goers to an all-new kind of movie monster – shocking, visceral, graphic and relentless. Spawning seven popular sequels to date, the series has become the most prosperous werewolf franchise of all time.”

It includes a foreword by Philippe Mora, director of Howling II & III.

Writer in the horror community since 2008. Editor in Chief of Bloody Disgusting. Owns Eli Roth's prop corpse from Piranha 3D. Has two awesome cats. Still plays with toys.

‘Reconcile’ – Bruce Campbell Just Published His Own Western Novella

Published

on

Bruce Campbell is back this year with his brand new movie Ernie & Emma touring the country, and the horror legend has also written a brand new novella that’s now available to read.

Available now as an eBook and paperback, New York Times Bestselling Author Bruce Campbell’s Reconcile sees Campbell putting his own spin on the classic Western genre.

Campbell explains, “My mother, Joanne, loved the Western genre. She read every Zane Grey novel he ever wrote. I know because I drew stick-figure cartoons in the margins of her massive paperback collection. Westerns, by nature, are riddled with clichés – the steely-eyed, unshaven hero protecting innocent pioneers from brutal, unforgiving savages. With Reconcile, I tried to sidestep many of the cliché elements we’ve read or seen in Westerns for a generation.”

“Reality isn’t tidy or reliable,” Campbell continues. “Reality has unpleasant circumstances that don’t always resolve themselves like they do in the movies. In the heat of battle, the “good guys” and “bad guys” aren’t so easily defined. In the sprawling history of the American West, I’d like to think a different kind of story was possible, and I hope you enjoy it.”

You can purchase your copy of the 116-page, self-published novella now.
