Horror fans take notice! Forbidden Planet has one hell of an event to ring in the fall season.
One of the saddest questions I’ve had to frequently answer over the last few years is “When is the new Fangoria coming out?” or some variation of said question. Sad because I’ve had to break the bad news to endless fans that there will be no new issue of Fango. My heart was broken when I heard the news myself and I had to relive that gut-wrenching feeling every time I watched the devastated reactions on the faces of the devoted fans that posed this question. Well guess what? The time for mourning is over! America’s first name in fright is back and where better to celebrate the relaunch of Fangoria Magazine then Forbidden Planet NYC, the world’s premiere pop culture collectibles store.
Cinestate requests the honor of your presence to celebrate the (re)birth of Fangoria Magazine on Thursday October 4th, from 6-8PM at Forbidden Planet NYC (832 Broadway).
So join us for the party, grab the brand new issue and get it signed by a slew of Fangoria staff new and old. Just look at this guest list.
Phil Nobile Jr. Editor in Chief, FANGORIA Michael J. Seidlinger Author of FANGORIA Presents novel MY PET SERIAL KILLER (in stock now!) Michael Gingold former EIC FANGORIA Tony Timpone former EIC FANGORIA Norm Jacobs Co-Creator FANGORIA
…and special SURPRISE guests!
So grab your jacket cause it’s going to be a CHILLING event at Forbidden Planet for the relaunch of Fangoria Magazine!
Matt D has been a manager, buyer and event coordinator at Forbidden Planet since 2005 or maybe it was 2006. Who can remember? We didn't even have computers back then. A native New Yorker from the borough of Queens, raised on Sunday Funnies, Monster Movies and Rock N' Roll. What better place to end up than Forbidden Planet where he can use his position to influence the city's pop culture. A responsibility he takes seriously more now than ever due to New York's consistent change for the worse. The last thing NYC needs is another cafe or bank so thank whatever it is you believe in that Forbidden Planet is here to stay. Beyond the walls of FP, Matt is a publicly recognized expert in cult and horror cinema with a focus on VHS. He is the founder of Horror Boobs a collective that books screenings and distributes weirdo films, the producer of the documentary Adjust Your Tracking: The Untold Story of the VHS collector, the publisher of the Blood Video zine, and is regrettably responsible for resurrecting the career of schizophrenic Shot-on Video director Carl J Sukenick.
