Dear CR:
Â
First, Â let me say what a great
magazine. CR covers the time period in film and television that I think
is the greatest and most interesting.
Â
I grew up in the 60's with Famous
Monsters, Monster World, Castle of
Frankenstein among other magazines. I am currently also a big fan of FilmFax but yours is by
far the best.
Â
Hope you will be doing some more articles on
Hammer Films as well as exploitation films
such as the king David F. Friedman (Bloodfeast-Ilsa,She Wolf of the SS) and others like Charles B. Pierce (Legend
of Boggy Creek).Â
Â
Keep up the good work.

RETRO RESPONDS: Thanks for your support and kind words, Jamey. Over the last five years, we've received many requests to amp-up our coverage of horror films, specifically Hammer. We've heeded the calls and will grace the cover of issue #16 with a shocking but erotic photo from the lesbian-themed Hammer film Lust for a Vampire. We'll be posting an advanced look shortly. Meanwhile, as a reminder to our subscribers, issue #16 marks the beginning of our new season and will be out in December/January. If you haven't renewed your subscription, do so today so you don't miss an issue!- Lee and Dave
