A new book pores through the late GEORGE A. ROMERO’s archives and unearths a treasure trove of unproduced and unpublished works, along with some eye-opening discoveries. Plus! Brandon Salisbury’s GEORGE A. ROMERO'S RESIDENT EVIL is a wistful look at what could have been; and a preview of Romero’s last zombie movie, TWILIGHT OF THE DEAD, as it enters pre-production.

DIABLO CODY and director ZELDA WILLIAMS reveal how they stitched together LISA FRANKENSTEIN, their ‘80s horror movie-steeped zom-rom-com. Plus! Cody looks back at her underrated and controversial 2009 horror movie debut, JENNIFER'S BODY.

New comic book anthology SHOOK! brings together a cadre of award-winning Black writers and artists for a gumbo of Southern Gothic terror.
