Psychotronic Books

Prior to the appearance of the second version of the magazine, Ballantine Books published The Psychotronic Encyclopedia of Film (1983), a 813-page compilation of mini-reviews of over 3,000 cult films. The book was written by Weldon with editorial assistance from Charles Beesley, Fangoria's Bob Martin, and Akira Fitton. The Foreword by Christopher Cerf credited the success of the original fanzine as direct inspiration for the publication of the book. In 1996, a sequel was published by St. Martin's Press, The Psychotronic Video Guide, credited solely to Weldon.

Famous quotes containing the word books:

    Critics generally come to be critics not by reason of their fitness for this, but of their unfitness for anything else. Books should be tried by a judge and jury as though they were a crime, and counsel should be heard on both sides.
    Samuel Butler (1835–1902)
