Issue #61 (Ghosts): Magazine

Inside the Issue...

You’ll find 1970s horror, Ghosts: the movie, Other Mommy and more in our autumn edition of Film Stories magazine. Here’s what’s inside issue 61:

As the nights draw in, Film Stories turns its attention to cinema’s darker side for issue 61. Our autumn horror special features two variant covers and a vast selection of features, interviews and reviews packed into its 168 pages. Plus! There are exclusive bundle deals where you can get a copy of the magazine and some wonderful merchandise - all for a bargain price.

First, though, there’s our exclusive interview with the creators and star of this autumn’s most sinister comedy, Ghosts: The Haunting Of Button House. Find out how the likes of Mathew Baynton, Simon Farnaby and Martha Howe-Douglas have brought a much-loved TV show back from the dead - and how they had to provide their own catering during the development process.

Then we head back to the 1970s to explore the horror movies that still cast a shadow over cinema today. With the help of filmmakers, academics and experts, find out how a decade of political turmoil and social change possessed the screen, from independent shockers like The Texas Chain Saw Massacre and Dawn Of The Dead to such Hollywood nightmares as The Exorcist and The Omen.

Moving into the present, we catch up with British director Rob Savage to hear about his new domestic shocker, Other Mommy - and how it gives Jessica Chastain the chance to put in one of her most terrifying performances to date.
