STRICTLY LIMITED TO ONLY 1000 COPIES WORLDWIDE

A sumptuous archive of insight into the wildly varied cinema of Takashi Miike from the world's foremost authority.
- Jovanka Vuckovic, director of The Captured Bird

From outrageous flavour of the month to respected modern master - Takashi Miike's rise to fame has been stellar. The former bad boy of Japanese film is now a regular at the world's most prestigious film festivals.

Tom Mes, whose groundbreaking Agitator: The Cinema of Takashi Miike helped shape this filmmaker's international career, has been along for the ride ever since Audition turned heads and stomachs at the turn of the millennium. This new book collects more than ten years' worth of his writing on Miike. From dusty film sets in Japan to festival intrigue on the Riviera, and from the straight-to-video ghetto to the stage, Mes covers the full scope of this unclassifiable filmmaker's life and work - with the kind of detail and intimacy that only an insider can provide.

Fully endorsed by the filmmaker himself, the full-colour Re-Agitator: A Decade of Writing on Takashi Miike also features a provocative foreword and a gallery of unique set photos by longtime Miike collaborator Christian Storms.

Internationally renowned writer, broadcaster and author Alan Jones has tirelessly reported on every aspect of Argento's career for more than three decades. Every single feature, interview, review and in-depth look at Argento's multi-faceted universe was meticulously collated into one stunning, Sold Out volume, originally called Profondo Argento. Available again at last, now under a new title and cover, Dario Argento: The Man, the Myths and the Magic includes a wealth of fresh material and interviews exclusively conducted for this exhaustive overview of Argento's extraordinary body of work. Illustrated with rare stills, posters and candid behind-the-scenes photos from the author's private collection, Jones probes deep into the psyche and methodology of one of the world's most celebrated genre directors - and in doing so also uncovers the luminous chaos of the entire Italian Film Industry itself.

Behind the Pink Curtain takes the reader on a wild joy ride deep into the hinterlands of Japanese culture, society and radical politics by way of the weird and wonderful world of the country’s distinctive sex film movements.

Jasper Sharp's definitive study focuses on one of the most notorious sectors of Japanese filmmaking, the erotic Pink Film, or pinku eiga genre, and the closely related Roman Porno films produced by the Nikkatsu studio from 1971 to 1988.

Based on extensive interviews with many of the leading figures in the field, Behind the Pink Curtain is a colourful and exhaustive exposé of Japan's most vibrant and prolific filmmaking sector.

Read about:
- the ins and outs of Japanese censorship from the wartime onwards;
- how topless deep sea diving girls came to woo local audiences in the '50s;
- how a TV nature documentary maker made nude female Tarzan movies;
- how '60s mavericks Kôji Wakamatsu and Masao Adachi met John and Yoko;
- how the sex farce Horny Home Tutor: Teacher's Love Juice was re-titled The Glamorous Life of Sachiko Hanai and became one of the most talked-about Japanese films ever, playing at more than twenty international film festivals.

Stunning Unique Women Laid Bare in Words and Pictures

Everyone who lives in Britain will be well aware of the furious reaction to the prank calls made by BBC personalities Russell Brand and Jonathan Ross to Andrew Sachs’s granddaughter Georgina Baillie, and the subsequent resignations, suspensions, questions in Parliament, and general media feeding frenzy. In case it needs to be emphasised, Russell Brand was referring to Voluptua, a member of the Satanic Sluts, the very same collective of free-minded souls profiled in all their naked glory in the FAB Press publication Blood & Dishonour: The Dark, Bloody and Perversely Erotic World of the Satanic Sluts. Now, we are not about to spin a false line here... there are after all 666 members of the Satanic Sluts, and just 38 of their number are profiled in our book. Though Voluptua was considered for inclusion just over a year ago when we put the book together, she did not make the final cut, but this book nevertheless remains the only publication that shows what the Satanic Sluts are all about, so check it out while stocks last!

Special Edition includes the eye-opening bonus Satanic Sluts DVD, and the infamous banned wrap-around autopsy cover! This version of the book is strictly limited to only 666 individually numbered copies worldwide, first come first served, no exceptions!

The Satanic Sluts are 666 of the world’s most attitudinal, creative and original women, who are linked by a shared interest in all things dark, sexual and Satanic, and by their membership of this exclusive group. Now, for the first time ever, a select number of this gorgeous, exclusive and elite legion are presented in all their glory - raw, uncut, uncensored, sometimes bloody, sometimes bound, but never bowed!

Nikkatsu Action - the film genre that brought the West to the East - and taught a whole generation the Japanese meaning of cool!

From 1954 until 1971, Japan’s Nikkatsu studio was the creative home to directors, stars and a genre, Nikkatsu Action, that shaped the styles, attitudes and dreams of millions of young Japanese. Nikkatsu Action films were set in a cinematic world neither foreign nor Japanese, but a mix of the two, where Japanese tough guys had the swagger and moves of Hollywood movie heroes. In the late 1960s Nikkatsu Action spawned a sub-genre, Nikkatsu New Action, that reflected the era’s go-go excess in films about renegade hoods, bikers with attitude and vixens in mini-skirts. Hits included Crimson Pistol, Dirty Work, A Colt Is My Passport, Warped Ones, Slaughter Gun, Gangster VIP, Rusty Knife and countless others.

No Borders, No Limits: Nikkatsu Action Cinema is the first book in English about this major, influential, but previously under-appreciated cinematic movement and the talent that created it. Illustrated with rare posters and stills, the book presents a detailed history of the Nikkatsu studio, profiles of leading directors and stars and reviews of dozens of Nikkatsu Action films, including the cult classics Velvet Hustler and Black Tight Killers. Also featured are career interviews with director Toshio Masuda, and Joe Shishido, the puffy-faced star of many Seijun Suzuki classics, including Branded to Kill, Youth of the Beast and Gate of Flesh

Italian cinema's tough-guy specialist explodes into action. A must-have for fans of cop-thrillers, spaghetti westerns and Eurotrash classics!

With nearly seventy films under his belt, almost exclusively in the colourful, controversial and eye-catching realm of Italian exploitation, character actor Luciano Rossi (1934-2005) remains one of Italian cinema's unsung heroes. Rossi gets brutalized more regularly and more spectacularly than any of his supporting counterparts, whether it's at the flaming fists of Maurizio Merli or via blowtorch to the nether regions courtesy of Klaus Kinski - and he deals it as furiously as he takes it!

A Violent Professional is the first book to fully examine the career of Luciano Rossi - complete with a biography and first-hand reviews of all of his known film roles - and stands proudly as a long-awaited appraisal of this dynamic actor's immeasurable contribution to Italian cinema. Films covered include truly great Italian cult movies such as Django, They Call Me Trinity, Return of Sabata, Death Walks in High Heels, So Sweet So Dead, The Bloody Hands of the Law, Death Carries a Cane, Death Smiles At Murder, The Violent Professionals, Red Light Girls, Violent Rome, Emanuelle's Revenge, Salon Kitty, SS Experiment Camp, Violent Naples, Red Nights of the Gestapo, Contraband, City of the Living Dead, and many, many more!

Provocative biography of the genius behind the cult classic British film Performance, starring Mick Jagger!

When Donald Cammell, the Scottish painter, filmmaker and novelist, committed suicide in 1996, he left behind a handful of unusual, innovative, frequently disturbing films. Cammell's extraordinary life was shrouded in both mystery and legend. In this provocative and comprehensive biography, Sam and Rebecca Umland explore Cammell's remarkable life and times, from his father's friendship with the notorious Aleister Crowley, right through to Donald's final years of frustration and ultimate tragedy in Hollywood.

Donald was in love with death. That's why I cast him in Lucifer Rising as Osiris, Lord of Death.
- Kenneth Anger

Illustrated with many examples of Cammell's work as an artist, plus rare and previously unpublished photographs, and 32 stunning pages of full colour poster reproductions and film stills, Donald Cammell: A Life on the Wild Side sheds startling new light on one of Great Britain's most fascinating filmmakers.

How many geniuses do you get to work with in one life?

"Book of the Dead is one of the best genre books of recent memory. Russell’s book is magnificently structured... stunningly designed... essential, intelligent and entertaining." - Rumour Machine website review

Book of the Dead charts the ghoulish history of zombie cinema, from the creature’s origins in Haitian voodoo to its cinematic debut in 1932’s White Zombie, George A. Romero’s quartet of ‘Dead’ movies (which includes the two acknowledged classics of the genre, Night of the Living Dead and Dawn of the Dead), and recent blockbuster hits like 28 Days Later, Shaun of the Dead and Land of the Dead.

Covering hundreds of movies from America, Europe and Asia, this comprehensive book chronicles the zombie’s on-screen evolution from Caribbean bogeyman to flesh-eating corpse. Along the way, Book of the Dead looks at Bela Lugosi B-movies, Italian gore films, Asian zombies, British zombies, blind monk zombies, shot-on-video backyard epics and the videogame phenomenon of Resident Evil. Spanning seven decades of horror movie history with hundreds of stills - including an incredible 64 pages of blood-drenched full colour photos and rare international poster art - and an exhaustive filmography, Book of the Dead explains why we continue to be so fascinated by these fugitives from the undertaker.

"This is the book that zombie fans have been waiting for... enough to keep deadhead enthusiasts happy the world over!" - Eat My Brains website review

"In this brilliant study author Brad Stevens scrutinizes both the man and films with passion and precision. A killer-diller of a book!"
- Film Review - Book of the Month
