Описание: From the 1950s onwards, far eastern filmmakers from Japan, China, and Korea-but mostly Japan-cranked out a bevy of dai kaiju ("giant strange beast") movies. This guidebook covers not only all the Godzilla and Gamera movies produced during Japan`s Showa Era (1954-1989), but other Asian monsters as well.

THE LOST FILMS FANZINE PRESENTS MOVIE MILESTONES #1, which celebrates the 80th anniversary of One Million B.C. (1940). And because this is a subsidiary of THE LOST FILMS FANZINE, we explore all the ways the film could have turned out but didn't. For instance, did you know that the rumored original director, D.W. Griffith, wanted to use stop-motion dinosaurs instead of lizards? Did you know that Hal Roach really wanted to adapt Jack London's Before Adam, but RKO beat him to the film rights so he had to craft an all-new caveman story? Also covered is the development of Hammer Film's remake, One Million Years B.C. (1966), which at one point included a mammoth, giant scorpions, and was to end with a battle with a brontosaurus. This special magazine also includes a mini-filmography covering the more prominent films to cannibalize stock-footage from the 1940 B.C., Mike Bogue remembers the forgotten caveman flick Eegah (1962), and the editor briefly explores films that almost got made in the wake of B.C. including Ray Harryhausen's Deluge remake, Mistress of the Seas starring Raquel Welch, and even an axed B.C. TV series

Описание:
During the turbulent times of the "Wild West," America's farmers, ranchers, and cowboys looked up into the sky and beheld "signs and wonders" that rival any UFO sighting of the modern era. In addition to the airships above them, on the ground below they encountered strange humanoids in possession of futuristic technology, glimpsed unidentified submersible objects in the water, and dug up alien artifacts from the earth. This book doesn't just cover typical airship encounters of the era. It also details sightings of Men in Black, a Reptilian in 1892, and what sound to be underwater dwelling aliens in Pyramid Lake, Nevada
After reading this book you'll ask yourself: Was a UFO sighted in Pascagoula, Mississippi, in 1874 related to another sighting there a hundred years later? Were strange lights floating along the train tracks in Edwardsville, Kansas, in 1878 those of a UFO or a Phantom Locomotive? Was an alien spotted in 1880 Kentucky the same specter named Spring-Heeled Jack that terrorized London in the 1830s? And, did a giant sword that fell to earth in New York State in 1883 come from the heavens or another dimension altogether?
The swamps of the South may look serene, but beneath their placid surfaces hides a multitude of horrific nightmares including colossal crocodiles, monster frogs, snakes of interminable lengths, and even giant leeches. Like the previous two books in this series, this new volume examines not only the usual prehistoric survivors like plesiosaurs and pterodactyls but also humanoid terrors such as lizardmen, gillmen, and frogmen.
After reading this book you'll ask yourself: Was the Dingocroc a prehistoric survivor or an alien from outer space? Did the White River Monster aid the Union Army by overturning Confederate gunboats during the Civil War? Was the Alligator Man seen in 1892 the ancestor of the Lizard Man seen in Scape Ore Swamp in 1988? Was a 22 foot alligator actually a prehistoric Deinosuchus? What about the giant leech seen by Cherokee Indians in North Carolina? Was it an ancient Bristle Worm, a Giant Amazon Leech that went too far north, or just the product of folklore?
And finally, just what was the Wog of Winder, Georgia, said to emerge from the Nodoroc mud volcano that the Creek Native American tribe claimed was the gateway to Hell itself...

Описание:
The American Congress: A Reference Handbook covers Congress from its inception to the present day, discussing the constitutional functions of Congress and how they have evolved over time. It presents a detailed discussion of 15 problems with which Congress copes, some associated concerns with those problems, and how they might be resolved.
The book opens with a brief history of Congress and how it has changed over time. It discusses a series of problems and concerns, and proposed solutions to those problems. It also comprises nine original essays by other scholars and persons involved in congressional politics as well as profiles of the major organizations and actors involved. Data and documents and a detailed chronology of Congress from 1789 to 2018 allow readers to situate significant legislation within the history of Congress, while an annotated list of sources--the major books and scholarly journals concerned with Congress in addition to a number of feature-length films and videos--provide readers with vetted resources for further study.
