What book u reading at the moment?

[Fearonsarms]

The Lurking Fear story is a lot better than the Full Moon pictures effort-one of the weaker film adaptations of Lovecraft

[The Villain]

Never seen the film, i've noticed though that his stories don't translate well to film or at least no one's done a good enough job with one. Still havent seen Call of Cthulhu yet though and i hear that's pretty accurate.

[Doc Faustus]

Ian Fleming's The Man With the Golden Gun.

A pretty entertaining noir thriller from the 70s called "An Affair of Sorcerers," that features a dwarf private detective named Mongo.

Fun reading, nothing heavy.

Cool. I read Chesbro's SHADOW OF A BROKEN MAN. Really liked it. Had an sf angle to it.

Now, for Halloween, I'm reading --- heh --- something called THE MONSTER CLUB. Slightly humorous, maybe a little absurd, but it doesn't get in the way of the drama, action, or creepy factor.

Hey sfear- great to see you here again!

Currently reading a recent collection of 4 novellas by Stephen King called Full Dark, No Stars.

I've finished the first novella and I'm half way through the second, and I must say, when King is "on" there's no mystery why he's one of the best selling authors of all time. I've read some of his works that I found kind of disappointing, but when he's good, he's really really good. This book is really, really good.

Just got down with The Woman by Jack Ketchum and Lucky McKee. This has got to be one of the best books I've read in a while. If you haven't read it you should really check it out.

I just started The Deceased by Tom Piccerilli

The Ebethusa by an indie author called Solomon Strange- it's pretty unusual, a science fiction story with a ghostly theme. It's bloody good.

There have been a few good adaptations well at least I think they are good-Dagon, The Dunwich Horror (1969), The Resurrected, From Beyond and of course Call Of Cthulhu which was a pure labour of love.

I hated Dagon. Not because the movie itself was bad but the acting and the characters were terrible.
