Podcasts about paperbacks from hell

This week the LSMR ladies take on the amazing Paperbacks from Hell. Special Thank you to Mr Grady Hendrix for putting in the WORK on getting these books rereleased. They were truly great reads that deserved to be back in print, they deserve to be saved from Book Death. We certainly enjoyed our two for this week and we are looking forward to reading more from the collection in the future.

Episode #481! This week we have some comic collections from the big two. First up, Scott has Avengers Two: Wonderman & The Beast. This comic collects the three issue series from 2000 by Roger Stern and Mark Bagley. Next is Superman Red and Blue, an anthology collection from DC Comics. This trade collects Superman stories (colored in red and  blue) by some of today's top creators. After a couple of failed attempts DL wasn't sure if this series would ever get collected, but Sandman Mystery Theatre Compendium vol. 1 is here! The first half of Matt Wagner, Steven T. Seagle and Guy Davis' story of Wesley Dodds' The Sandman is finally available! Also on this episode Scott talks about Grady Hendrix's Paperbacks From Hell! Check it out!

NASHVILLE GIRL | HOLLYWOOD BOULEVARD | HARDCOREWith Guest Programmer WILL ERRICKSONThere's a bit of wanderlust amblin' through the Drive-In, so Brandon & Chris enlist the help of guest programmer Will Errickson (co-author of the incredible Paperbacks From Hell and steward of the Too Much Horror Fiction Blog) to travel down those lonesome, dusty roads in hot pursuit of success and stardom. We're slinging our guitars over our shoulders, hikin' up our torn Daisy Dukes and thumbin' a ride into the darkest corners of Tinseltown for a double-feature of hicksploitation and degradation– but at what cost?

PUBLIC VERSION. Writer Grady Hendrix (SATANIC PANIC, MY BEST FRIEND'S EXORCISM, PAPERBACKS FROM HELL, THE SOUTHERN BOOK CLUB'S GUIDE TO SLAYING VAMPIRES, HORRORSTÖR, WE SOLD OUR SOULS) joins Adam, Joe, and Arwen to share his career journey as a journalist, novelist, and screenwriter. From originally wanting to be a director… to realizing that writing was the only outlet where he would only have to count on himself… to writing about Hong Kong cinema for fan magazines and websites… to learning from his freelance journalism career how to not be so precious about every word… to the benefits of attending writing workshops/seminars/conventions and how hearing the right words of encouragement from the right person at the right time can literally change someone's life… to terrific advice on co-writing with a partner and the precautions that you each should take in advance… to sharing extremely helpful insight on how to handle receiving and applying notes… to the writing of his latest book THE FINAL GIRL SUPPORT GROUP… Grady has a ton of invaluable insight to share for a writer that didn't sell a book until he was in his 40's!  (Living proof why you should never give up!) Dr. Arwen's office was closed for “Hollywood Therapy” this week in honor of National Leftover Pizza Crust Day but Adam and Joe discuss attending their first concert together since the pandemic began and Grady shares his love and admiration for TWISTED SISTER in this phenomenally comprehensive conversation about the craft of writing.

Hello fellow horror-fiends. This week we're going retro, to the heyday of horror, when men wore masks and women checked basements in their negligee. Our guest is Grady Hendrix, a writer perpetually interested in taking tropes, only to stab them, kill them, and resurrect them as something new. He's done it with exorcisms, vampires, the devil and … erm .. IKEA.Now he's taking on the slasher and his counterpart, in The Final Girl Support Group. A novel that takes the bloody, weary body of the female heroine, and gives her the chance to kick the hell out of the monster chasing her. It's meta, funny, wry and ironic – but it's also a story with heart. I enjoyed it immensely.Grady and I talk about our favourite slashers (and final girls), why we're obsessed with nostalgia, what it means that we enjoy films about killing women, and I – once again ­– give away too much of my own psychological frailty. This time it's my all-consuming terror of Freddy Kruger.This is a book and conversation that will REALLY please the true horror lovers.Enjoy! The Final Girl Support Group is published July 13th by Berkley in North American and Titan in the UK.Books mentioned in this episode include:Paperbacks From Hell (2017), by Grady HendrixWe Sold Our Souls (2018), by Grady HendrixThe Southern Book Club's Guide to Slaying Vampires (2020), by Grady HendrixMen, Women and Chainsaws: Gender in the Modern Horror Film (1992), by Carol J.

Let's Go Play At The Adams' is often compared to Jack Ketchum's book The Girl Next Door and is the only novel by Mendel W. Johnson. Published in 1974, the year before I was born, I felt a need to review this especially since it has wildly varying praise and scorn. A current cult classic it seemed to be hard to get hold of through the years, being reissued a couple of times. In 1974 came out by the small company and these are those coveted hardbacks you might see for $100 at Abe books. That company was incidentally bought out by Harper. This was released in the 80s by Bantam Books and this is probably, I'm just guessing here, what most of the paperback copies at least see are from. Then, of course, with much fanfare, this book was chosen by Grady Hendrix and Will Erickson and whoever else is there is at play to be reprinted after being featured in Paperbacks from Hell. From what I understood going into this it was a grimy novel talking about coming of age and rape and violence and I wasn't sure if it was rape-revenge because I never got into spoiler territory with any of the descriptions.

Reading Lovecraft is a great way to discover new writers and strange old pseudoscientific theories. In this episode I discuss how through Lovecraft I first learned of Margaret Murray and the infamous Witch-Cult Hypothesis – the idea that the ‘witches’ persecuted in early-modern witch trials were in fact the survivors of an ancient pagan cult. Yes, not only did people take this idea seriously, but they ran with it. Really ran with it. This episode of WIDE ATLANTIC WEIRD delves into what Murray believed, what others made of it, and the long-term effects of this particular odd belief. Cthulhu, wicca, Dennis Wheatley, Rosemary’s Baby: they all have their part to play in ALL OF THEM WITCHES: Margaret Murray And The Witch-Cult Hypothesis. So burn your black candles, put on your wicker antlers, crack open an ale and sit by the fire for a bewitching (sigh) episode of WIDE ATLANTIC WEIRD.

You might think it eccentric to speak of a golden age of satanic possession, murderous infants, flesh-eating crustaceans and Nazi leprechauns, but for enthusiasts of paperback horror novels, the 70’s and 80’s were the glory days.  This was a time of the most lurid nightmares spawned, it seemed, from the very bowels of Hell. This was a time when books were proud to be horror rather than ‘chiller’ or ‘thriller’, and when the word Satan on the cover was a guarantee of sales (even if there was nothing supernatural inside). Grady Hendrix has written a hugely entertaining history and celebration of this splendid time. We talked to Grady via skype from a restaurant kitchen in … Continue reading →

When I first scheduled this interview with author Grady Hendrix, I was expecting him to be much more tongue-in-cheek about the subject of horror in print. He had named his book “Paperbacks from Hell,” and started his history of horror novels with The Little People and its unique creation, Gestopochauns – Nazi leprechauns. Plus, he has so much fun describing the outlandish plots of some of these books. Take, for example, this gem, in which he describes Jeffrey Konvitz's The Sentinel: Young Alison ran away but her father chased her down and tried to strangle her with a crucifix necklace, sending her into a fainting, barfing frenzy that ended only when she kicked him in the nards and renounced the church. The book can seem like Mystery Science Theater for print at times. And just as Joel Hodgson and company adore the movies they riff on, and the idea of movies in general, Hendrix loves his books, no matter how over-the-top or offensive they may be. Hendrix appreciates not only the classics like Ira Levin's Rosemary's Baby and Joan Samson's The Auctioneer but also the unbound imagination it took to conjure up demon puppets or write five books about killer crabs. “One of the things I take really, really seriously with this book is a lot of these authors are really legitimately good authors, and some are batshit crazy who wrote batshit crazy books, but they've been forgotten,” he says. “This is what they left behind. They've retired, some have died. This is their legacy, and I feel like in a way, my job is to introduce readers to these sort of forgotten authors and sort of take care of this flame and keep it burning.” Hendrix writes his own novels, as well. He released My Best Friend's Exorcism in July, and frequently publishes short fiction and nonfiction pieces. There is a definite sense of humor in everything Hendrix writes, but he's dedicated to making sure what he puts on the page feels real to the reader. Which is why he braved his fear of the dark by sitting in the basement of his apartment building to know what his characters would feel like in Horrorstor, his novel about a haunted IKEA. “When it's time to pull out the scares in horror, I always feel like the ways people fail the most is they don't dig deep enough,” he says. “You make something scary not by taking it super seriously, you make it scary by really knowing it and conveying that experience.” You can find all of his writing at GradyHendrix.com. After the conversation, stay tuned for “Welcome to the Land of Bad Magic,” a great sludgy, riffy track from Hound's new album, Born Under 76. If you like your guitars loud, low, and fuzzy, Hound is the band for you. Find out more about them on their BandCamp site or the Let's Pretend Records Web site.

Paperbacks from Hell by Grady Hendrix strikes the perfect balance of context, curiosity, and lurid sensationalism in its approach to the paperback horror boom of the 70s and 80s. Daring to peer beneath the gruesome (and often just plain baffling) covers, Hendrix and his colleague and researcher Will Errickson chart the trends, history, and notable figures involved in creating these once ubiquitous tomes. This book will slake your thirst for killer crabs, Nazi leprechauns, and suburban devil cults. On this mini episode, Kate and Jack talk to Will Errickson of Too Much Horror Fiction about his horror paperback collection, some of the factors that came into play during this particular period in pulp fiction, and the role of these books in today's popular culture. Catch Will and Grady on the Paperbacks from Hell book tour at Powells Books in Beaverton, OR this Thursday October 12.
