Thanks, David!

Also nominated is this cool magazine cover for issue #1 of Latarnia: Fantastique International, which I'm going to have to pick up for its cover article...

"The Many Faces of Barbara Steele" - sound like a great must-have article.

Babs is cool! Love her Italian chillers--when a classic horror star like her was cast in the 91 DS, it was the icing on the cake for me!

Very exciting; I just ordered the mag.  Not only does the article on Steele sound intriguing, but I have over the years seen very few writers take on the underground Sixties German classic horror film "The Snake-pit and the Pendulum," aka "The Torture Chamber of Dr. Sadism." 

Thanks for the link!

I received my copy of the magazine today.  The painting of Barbara Steele on the cover looks rather nicer than the scan of it would suggest, I thought.  The article about her consists of a page and a half of screen captures from two recent DVD film releases, An Angel for Satan (1966) and The Maniacs (1964); the latter is particularly interesting because it was a non-horror film and features Barbara in two comedic roles (the movie was in the popular anthology format we enjoyed so much in the 1960s). 

The feature on the Torture Chamber of Dr. Sadism was beautifully done, and there were articles on Paul Naschy's last werewolf movie, and one of the actors from an early Naschy film, Werewolf Shadow.
