Asia Shock in Collectors' Corner


Boyce McClain's Collectors' Corner, a mainstay of the comics industry, features Patrick Galloway's Asia Shock: Horror and Dark Cinema from Japan, Korea, Hong Kong, and Thailand on the front page of the new May 2007 issue, #172. Here's an excerpt from McClain's high praise for the essential guide to shocking Asian cinema:

The book looks into world of horror and fear as envisioned by some of the East's masters of horror and suspense. Look for interesting anecdotes, insights into the films and their symbolism, reviews, interviews and observations, coupled with photos from classic films...Prepare yourself to be shocked and surprised.
