"It doesn't do any good to say, 'This is what it means.' When you are spoon fed a film, people instantly know what it is. I like films that leave room to dream."

Here’s a bad review for “Don’t Look Now” that I recently read in a 1973 issue of respected genre bible “Cinefantastique.”

‘…the genre can do without filmmakers who value intellectual process over dramatic reality… Artists have dragged popular art into holes like this before…’

Before the internet Cinefantastique was one of the main ways horror and SF fans could get their fill of news, featured and gossip about the genres they loved. At its best the magazine was a fan-focussed encyclopedia that has rarely been bettered.

As TV began to produce more speculative fiction, Cinefantastique increasingly turned its attention to the small screen in the 80s and 90s. What mattered was the genre, rather than the medium.

Malone also later tried to get another Giger inspired sci-fi horror film into production “Dead Star” which was basically ‘Hellraiser in Space’ which some claim later informed the film “Event Horizon.”
And another Giger inspired film “The Mirror” as featured in Cinefantastique.

It’s one of the reasons why I was an avid reader of film magazines in the pastlike “Cinefantastique.” Film productions were less guarded by big studio marketing/PR contracts. Nowadays it’s all so much well oiled PR fluff.
I’d advice anyone reading this to pick up back issues.
