Hell is a Teenage Girl

The latest theme over at Electric Sheep is 'Daughters of Darkness', inspired by the BFI's lengthy Gothic season. Having written a monograph on Brian De Palma's Carrie for Auteur Publishing's Devil's Advocates series, I thought it would be fun to look at similar movies centering on violent adolescent females. The resulting piece, Hell is a Teenage Girl, features Poison Ivy, Ginger Snaps, Teeth and The Loved Ones among many others and can be read by clicking on the link below.

Carrie screening at Dukes at Komedia

With remarkably fortuitous timing, on Friday 1st November the Dukes at Komedia in Brighton is screening Brian De Palma's classic 1976 adaptation of Stephen King's debut novel Carrie to be followed by a prom themed after-party. I'll be there in the bar area before the screening selling copies of my monograph about the film which has recently been published by Auteur Publishing. 

Devil's Advocates: Carrie

My monograph looking at Brian De Palma's adaptation of Stephen King's Carrie is now available to pre-order on Amazon. It's a privilege to have written a book as part of Auteur Publishing's Devil's Advocates series, and especially on a film that scared the living you know what out of me as a kid. If you would like to pre-order the book, click on the link below. Devil's Advocates: Carrie will be published on the 10th of October, 2013.
