Yeah, Greg Shoemaker's JAPANESE FANTASY FILM JOURNAL - in some ways pointed out that a narrowly defined subject matter like Japanese horror/sci-fi (or Hammer for that matter) could be successfully handled by a 'zine. Everyone didn't need to publish a general interest horror mag.
Does Mark Frank really feel that way about horror movies now? Huh...I always got the impression that it was the horror films of his youth that helped him get through that tough period, when he felt left out of it - like a lot of us, on the outside of the "neat" kids. I met him at the 1974 World Science Fiction Convention in 1974 and the Famous Monster Con in Washington, D.C. in the 1990s. Have a photo somewhere of the two of us together. I got the impression he still loved this stuff, and would show certain films to his own children. But like so many fanzine editors, real life and responsibilities had taken over the free time that had allowed him to publish PHOTON. I thought he was super cool at the D.C. con in 1974. PHOTON I enjoyed more than CINEFANTASTIQUE in those heady days of the 1970s, both for its choice of articles, and the sometimes light-hearted way it could go (the art on WAR OF THE WORLD & the phony posters).
