AWE's release of HELL OF THE LIVING DEAD with my booklet is out in stores and so far I've seen two reviews (in Danish):Bookletten er forfattet af gyser-aficionadoen Jack J., der entusiastisk fortæller om Mattei og hans film. Det er interessant læsning skrevet med et glimt i øjet – herligt!- Kristian Jensen, On-Z.dkNu er der vist ikke mange, der vil hævde, at Bruno Mattei var en fremragende

I've just handed in the text for my next booklet for Another World Entertainment. The film is Bruno Mattei's HELL OF THE LIVING DEAD. Release date in August, 2010. I'm very enthusiastic about having been asked to do this booklet, not least since I'm a big Bruno Mattei fan but unfortunately I had difficulties writing the bastard. I haven't published anything for more than 5 years (short and

Now, this isn't a new It's Grim Up North publication as such but I thought I'd just mention that I've just launched a new film blog on trashy war movies from the Philippines entitled When the Vietnam War raged... in the Philippines. It's not least exciting because, as far as I'm aware, this is the ONLY homepage/site/blog devoted to this genre!

Here's a scan of the Danish VHS release of the biker movie ANGELS DIE HARD that I thought about using as a cover for STAY SICK! a couple of years ago. I didn't use it but I still think it's a great cover. The Danish VHS is also very rare (my copy is an ex-rental from the Faeroe Islands).(click the cover for a bigger size)

I stumbled over this way old review of Stay Sick! #4 which I had totally forgotten all about. It's written by Simon Nielsen and originally printed in the online garage and punk rock magazine Lowcut Magazine #11 (2004). Lowcut replaced the print magazine Moshable when they closed in 2000 and it's run by some of the same people.Review from Lowcut:Stay Sick! Magazine #4 parts 1+2I might just as well

Last year the video company Another World Entertainment (AWE) asked me if I'd write a booklet for their then upcoming DVD release of Bruno Mattei's RATS: NIGHT OF TERROR (org. title: Rats: Notte di Terrore / Danish title: Rats: Nattens terror) and obviously I said yes. It was a fun experience to get published to a wider audience than the usual handful of readers in the underground (although

As is the case with Banned in Britain #3 Stay Sick! #5 is also on the way! There's still quite a bit of way to go, not least because in the years that have passed since #4 I have kept changing what I want to include in the mag. Actually, I could easily have put out an issue long ago, that's how much material I've already got lying around in my drawers (well, computerised drawers!). But although

BiB #3 is definitely on its way! It's been laying low for awhile but now it's on the move! When I originally started the fanzine it was to write about splatter movies. Well, I still love splatter movies but now I'm also totally in love with the wild and crazy movies of The Philippines and Indonesia. Those countries don't really make no-holds-barred movies anymore but they sure did in the 80s and
