Описание:
Southwest Arizona, a century ago. An uneasy true exists between the remote frontier community of Picture City and the neighboring Apaches. That delicate peace is shredded when the bodies of two white men are found hideously mutilated. The angry townspeople are certain the “savages” have broken the treaty, but Billjohn Finley, the local Indian agent, fears that darker, more unholy forces may be at work. There’s a tall, dark stranger in town, who rode in wearing the dead men’s clothes. A stranger who may not be entirely human . . . . Originally published as a mass-market Western in 1994, "Shadow on the Sun" has been out of print for years and was largely overlooked by horror fans and general readers. Now at last this forgotten tale of supernatural terror returns to chill the blood of Matheson's many fans.

Back East, they told tall tales about Marshall Clay Halser, the fearless Civil War veteran who became known as the “Hero of the Plains” for his daring exploits in the Wild West. But the truth, as revealed in his private journals, is even more compelling. A callow youth in search of excitement, Halser travels to the raucous cow towns of the frontier, where his steady nerve and ready trigger finger soon mark him as a gunfighter to be reckoned with. As both an outlaw and a lawman, he carves out a legendary career. But fame proves to be the one enemy he can never outdraw–and a curse that haunts him to the bitter end . . . .

Описание: Responsible for some of the greatest films of the 20th century--The Grapes of Wrath, How Green Was My Valley, and The Quiet Man among others--John Ford was best known for motion pictures that defined the American West and the face of wartime military. A Hollywood celebrity, Ford lived his life against the background that Twentieth Century-Fox fashioned for him. As he did, the facts of his life merged with--and became inseparable from--his multifaceted legend, fostered by Hollywood's studio culture and his own imagination. In The Westerns and War Films of John Ford Sue Matheson offers an engaging look at one of America's greatest directors and the two genres of films that solidified his reputation. Drawing on previously unreleased material, this volume explores the man, the filmmaker, the veteran, and the legend--and the ways in which all of those roles shaped Ford's view of America, national character, and his creative output. Among the films discussed here in depth are Ford's early productions, such as The Iron Horse and Drums along the Mohawk, his military films, such as Submarine Patrol, The Battle of Midway, and They Were Expendable, and his Westerns, including Fort Apache, She Wore a Yellow Ribbon, The Searchers, and Cheyenne Autumn. Ford imbued many of his creations with a point of view that represented his ideals, and the films discussed here illustrate their director's distinct vision of American life on the frontier and in service of the country. That vision--Ford's idealization of the American Character--would, in turn, shape the worldview of several generations. The Westerns and War Films of John Ford will appeal to critics and scholars, but also to any fan of this iconic filmmaker's work.

Описание:
What if you were told that you could make a fortune just by pushing a button on a box? But pressing this button will simultaneously cause the death of another human being somewhere in the world . . . someone you don’t know. Would you still push the button?
“Button, Button," Richard Matheson’s chilling tale of greed and temptation, is now the basis of "The Box," the new film from the director of "Donnie Darko." In addition, this outstanding collection also contains many other unforgettable stories by Matheson, the award-winning author of "I Am Legend" and "What Dreams May Come."
"The inventive plots and spare but convincing portraits of ordinary men and women caught up in forces beyond their control demonstrate why Stephen King has called Matheson his most significant influence.” "--Publishers Weekly"
