The ultimate guide to the wildest excesses of grindhouse movies and beyond... Get Ready to Be Flushed!
The celebrated underground smash that is Cinema Sewer the magazine has been transformed and mutated into CINEMA SEWER: THE BOOK - and following the outstanding popularity of the first three books, VOLUME FOUR has been unleashed onto a now slightly-less-unsuspecting world!
A mind-melting compilation of gonzo writing, illustration and comics about the most insane, sexy, awkward, cheesy, hilarious, upsetting and jaw-dropping movies in the history of film, Cinema Sewer joyously and shamelessly celebrates the sleazy aspects of bizarre cinematic history.
Issues 21 to 23 of Robin Bougie's celebrated underground smash magazine are revisited in this fourth wild volume, together with an additional 80 pages of never-before-seen interviews, rants, comics, hard-to-find classic movie advertising, and graphic illustrations by Bougie and a host of his talented friends from both the comic book and animation industries. Regardless of whether you're just discovering the world of classic porn, horror, and exploitation movies, or if you're a long time fan, you'll find plenty to get excited about, as you gleefully slosh around in the filth of the Cinema Sewer!
'Cinema Sewer is the direct heir and foremost survivor of decades of mayhem-trash-film fanzines, and Robin Bougie has proven time and again that there's still meatballs to be pulled out of the gravy.'

'Essential reading for anyone into trash movies, exploitation films or classic adult cinema.'

About the Author
In 1997, underground comic artist and zine publisher Robin Bougie began Cinema Sewer magazine, an ode to the seamier side of film and the culture that surrounds it. With an obscenely large collection of rare press books, posters, and obscure deranged movies, Bougie used his geek knowledge, his artistic skills as comic book artist, and connections in the world of porn to give birth to this unseemly but loveable bastard-child of a publication. Printed comic-sized on cruddy newsprint - 'a reading experience meant to take place in the bathroom while defecating' as one critic put it - the magazine quickly found an audience amongst film fans looking for something totally different. Bougie contributes liner notes for DVD releases for companies such as Something Weird Video and Video X-Pix. He has also written Graphic Thrills for FAB Press, a full-colour illustrated in-depth history of the American hardcore movie industry's Golden Age, from the first feature films in 1970, to the last of the theatrical porn releases in 1985.
