When Ohio's Michael Weldon started Psychotronic magazine, it was a hand-lettered TV Guide for B-film groupies. It blossomed into a book, The Psychotronic Encyclopedia of Film, then gave birth to a popular yearly calendar.
For awhile, Weldon also ran a Psychotronic Boutique. (It was re-created by almost-resident fan Quentin Tarantino in his movie True Romance.Most recently, he has run Psychotronic Video -- and its new, twentieth issue is a stunner.
Where else will you find interviews with June Wilkinson (the Englishwoman who became "the most photographed nude in America"), Bruce Glover (father of Crispin), and William Lustig (without whom there would be no Maniac, Maniac Cop, etc). All this plus info galore on how to order (globally) films and video, plus a mine of new fanzines, records, weird-o facts and pics.
For example: where else will you find the poop on films like Adventures of El Frenetico and Go-Go Girl (and their epic battle with an evil snack food king)? Nowhere: that's the truth. Why? No one has remotely got the sort of knowledge, twisted wit and resources manned by Weldon. (Even the word "psychotronic" is now copyright to him).
Therefore, rush to get your own action-packed issues!
