To coincide with the 45th anniversary of sci-fi cinema's most fearsome creation – THE XENOMORPH – we begin our bumper interview series featuring new chats with the cast and crew from the entire ALIEN saga, starting this issue with Ridley Scott's original masterpiece, James Cameron's ALIENS, David Fincher's ALIEN3, and Jean-Pierre Jeunet's ALIEN RESURRECTION!
Also in this issue:
- In honour of THE ACOLYTE's arrival, we explore the High Republic era of STAR WARS storytelling, talking to the show's stars Amandla Stenberg, Dafne Keen, Charlie Barnett, Manny Jacinto, and Lee Jung-jae. Also sharing their love of the 'galaxy far, far away' is actor, writer, and creator of the popular YouTube channel Philosophy Tube Abigail Thorn, and the acclaimed genre author George Mann!
- As his cult horror classic BASKET CASE gets a welcome 4K release, writer-director Frank Henenlotter joins us to reminisce about the film's complicated birth!
- We celebrate the work of a cult filmmaker many might not yet be familiar with… welcome to the wonderfully weird world of a true auteur, Neil Breen!
- W.D. Richter, the prolific screenwriter behind 1978's beloved remake of INVASION OF THE BODY SNATCHERS, talks us through his impressive career.
- We visit the set of indie horror The Witches of the Sands and talk to one of its stars, scream queen Linnea Quigley!
- From a murdering spree in Haddonfield to ghosts on Mars, we watch our backs as we take a terrified stroll through the prolific career of John Carpenter, the Master of Horror.
- Our planet's very first porno parody FLESH GORDON reaches its Golden Anniversary this year, and since we don't see anybody else daring to sing its praises, we thought we'd step in and throw the mischievously mucky movie its own party! Whether you're a lifelong fan or you've never heard of it, our retrospective will inform, entertain, and possibly make you feel a little unclean.
All this and much, MUCH more!
