Product description

From bloodsucking schoolgirls to flesh-eating zombies, and from psychopathic killers to beasts from hell, '100 European Horror Films' provides a lively and illuminating guide to a hundred key horror movies from the 1920s to the present day. Alongside films from countries particularly associated with horror production - notably Germany, Italy, and Spain and movies by key horror filmmakers such as Mario Bava, Dario Argento, and Lucio Fulci, '100 European Horror Films' also includes films from countries as diverse as Denmark, Belgium, and the Soviet Union, and filmmakers such as Bergman, Polanski and Claire Denis, more commonly associated with art cinema. The book features entries representing key horror subgenres such as the Italian 'giallo' thrillers of the late 60s and 70s, psychological thrillers, and zombie, cannibal, and vampire movies. Each entry includes a plot synopsis, major credits, and a commentary on the film's significance, together with its production and exhibition history. Films covered in the book include early classics such as Paul Wegener's 'The Golem,' Robert Wiene's 'The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari,' and 'Murnau's Nosferatu'; 70s horror favorites such as 'Daughters of Darkness, The Beast,' and 'Suspiria'; and notable recent releases such as 'The Devil's Backbone, Malefique,' and 'The Vanishing.'

Absolutly emotional!
This book took me through ups and downs. I found myself shaking my head a few times, then take a deep breath and go on reading.

This is not a shitstorm book that is intended to spread rumors. I think Britney talks very reflectively about how she experienced everything back then and how she felt about it.

I can recommend this book to everyone. It doesn't matter if you're a Britney fan or not. Because her story is one that should be heard and read!
As far as book titles are concerned, Jennette McCurdy's memoir surely has one of the most provocative ones. When the actress rose to fame through the Nickelodeon shows iCarly and Sam & Cat, nobody could have imagined the turmoil behind the scenes - her family's financial insecurity, a very strict upbringing, dehumanizing auditions, emotional abuse from her mother, and immense pressure from the show's producer. How do you undo a lifetime of manipulation, and destructive coping mechanisms, and land to stand on your own feet? In I'm Glad My Mom Died, she delves deep into these uncomfortable topics with refreshing frankness and surprisingly dark humor. Every chapter closes with a metaphorical gut punch that makes putting the book down nearly impossible. An infuriating, yet highly captivating read and one of the best memoirs to come out of 2022.
Was für ein Buch!
Es liest sich einfach so weg, hat mir wahnsinnig viel Lust auf's Weiter- und Wiederentdecken der Musik mit dem eigentlich so irreführenden Begriff Krautrock gemacht und erklärt nachvollziehbar, warum diese innovativen, neuen Klänge so nur in Deutschland entstehen konnten.

Christoph Dallach hat unzählige Interviews mit nahezu allen Musiker:innen aus dem Inneren der Szene geführt und deren O-Töne zu einer großartigen Collage montiert, die sich in verschiedenen Kapiteln nicht nur mit den bekanntesten Bands und Künstler:innen, sondern auch mit deren Elternhäusern, der deutschen Nachkriegsgesellschaft, WGs, Jazz, Drogen, Reisen und der allgemeinen Musiklandschaft auseinandersetzt. Das Ergebnis ist nicht nur für Musikinteressierte extrem spannend, sondern auch von hoher kultur-und zeitgeschichtlicher Relevanz.
Fantastisch.
Used from many high-class musical theatre universities around the world, this book is a must-have for every musical theatre student, actor, or those who are planning to pursue a career in musical theatre. With a variety of exercises, and detailed compact units for: character development, acting through song, musical interpretation, historical context, and working in the industry - this book offers everything you have ever looked for. This guide bundles the knowledge of several acting theories, and supports you on the best possible way.

Er ist einer der größten Stars Hollywoods, Rapper, Kino-Held und der "Prinz von Bel-Air". Doch der Strahlemann hatte immer mit ganz eigenen Problemen und Widrigkeiten zu kämpfen: Selbstkritisch und reflektiert führt Will Smith in "Will" durch sein Leben und lässt dabei auch seine Schwächen, Zweifel, Fehler, Macken nicht aus. Ein erfrischendes, fesselndes Buch, das beeindruckend den Menschen hinter der Promi-Fassade zeigt.
Whoa. What a devastating read! A dystopia in the darkest sense of the word - without a happy ending whatsoever (that's how I interpret it at least).
A must-read classic.

You'll never think of rats the same way again!
