In Cell you’ll find nods to both Matheson’s I Am Legend and Romero’s zombie apocalypse world, but it becomes more an apocalypse as filtered through the likes of J.G. Ballard and Cronenberg.
Terence Taylor’s debut horror novel is a crazy patchwork quilt of a book. There are so many plot threads running through the work, that zeroing in is a problem.
In Rot, Michelle Lee gives the reader a near perfect zombie novella by mining the familiar territory of how society handles and disposes of its unwanted population.
In Dark Delicacies III a number of contributions are by screenplay writers, directors, actors, even a spouse of a director; the foreword is by actor and writer Steven Weber.
Shock Totem: Curious Tales of the Macabre and Twisted is a welcome addition to the horror community.
