Here's a few pictures from the new Glittering Images book '1970's Italian Sexy Horror'.
Movies featured include NIGHT OF THE DAMNED,FRANKENSTEIN '80,DEVIL'S WEDDING NIGHT,LADY FRANKENSTEIN and Polselli's REINCARNATION OF ISABEL.
Some great locandine/posterart and the cineromanzo strips/sequences are amazing.
Price €29

No Xploited Cinema,got it sent fedex for an extra $1.50 or something and it arrived 3 days later.
Glittering Images charge €6 postage direct from Italy,might order their next book(on Gialli cineromanzo) from them as they take straight cash in Euros.Nice guys there as well,very friendly and helpful.

Received my Glittering Images book yesterday, not the same one as yours Stephen but very, very nice. I'm going to be buying the 70's Horror one next for sure.

Jonny, classic picture of wedding ring on finger while looking at naked photos!
all kidding aside, these books look amazing, and I'll definitely be ordering some of these very soon...

[Stephen Grimes]

I am so on that Jonny,deffo my next Glittering Images purchase.
Btw their next book will be on cineromanzo and the giallo genre,essential!

[Rogerio Ferraz]

WOW! Those Glittering Images books do look amazing, don´t they?? 

One question, please, Stephen:

- Does  '1970's Italian Sexy Horror' feature *complete* cineromanzi as originally published on cinesex and the like?

Cheers

[Stephen Grimes]

Does  '1970's Italian Sexy Horror' feature *complete* cineromanzi as originally published on cinesex and the like?

Rogerio,the 'Italian Sexy Horror' book doesn't feature the complete photonovels just the best parts/sequences from the original magazines like Cinestop,Cinesex etc.
I have a few issues of Cinesex which nearly all feature 1 movie per issue and these are the whole thing from start to finish which run to about 60-70 pages.The photostory of Sergio Martino's CASE OF THE SCORPIONS TAIL is basically the same as the film except for more nudity (Hilton's arse as well ).

[Rogerio Ferraz]

Stephen,

Thanks for the reply - and pictures! 

I've tried to bid on some Cinesex issues featuring gialli photonovels on ebay, but they went way out of my price range. Maybe some day... 

[Stephen Grimes]

Yeah they do sell for big money esp. some of the Polselli issues and the Fenech/Neri ones,there were quite a few Cinesex,Bigfilm and Cinestop on Ebay a month or so ago which were going for between €50 and €200 each.
The Glittering Images books are well worth picking up,there's also PSYCHOPATHIA SEXUALIS IN ITALIAN SINEMA which features  Top Sensation,Delirio Caldo,Strange Vice of Mrs Wardh and other movies which were used in Italian cineromazo between 1968 and 1972.
Check out the Italian posterart for Franco's  'Venus in Furs' used for the cover.

[Rogerio Ferraz]

Yeah - these books have been on my to buy list ever since I first heard about them!
I can only dream that one day Glittering Images will put out a Giallo book similar to
the Western All'Italiana series! 

[Stephen Grimes]

Hopefully their next book titled 'Bizarre Sinema! Giallo & Thrilling all'italiana' will be though i've a feeling this will be based around the cineromanzo magazines rather than a review/apppraisal of the genre.

[Gary B.]

I just got this book as a gift today from my girlfriend!  outstanding

Hopefully their next book titled 'Bizarre Sinema! Giallo & Thrilling all'italiana' will be though i've a feeling this will be based around the cineromanzo magazines rather than a review/apppraisal of the genre.

I'll get that one regardless. I'd love them to do a series like the Western All'Italiana. Do the first on directors, next on actresses/actors and the third on reviews.
