  The Monster Movies of Universal...

  In 1931 Universal Studios released Dracula starring Bela Lugosi. This box office success was followed by a string of films featuring macabre characters and chilling atmospherics, including Frankenstein, The Mummy, and The Invisible Man. With each new film, Universal established its place in the Hollywood firmament as the leading producer of horror films, a status it enjoyed for more than twenty years. 
  In The Monster Movies of Universal Studios, James L. Neibaur examines the key films produced by the studio from the early 1930s through the mid-1950s. In each entry, Neibaur recounts the movie's production, provides critical commentary, considers the film's commercial reception, and offers an overall assessment of the movie's significance. Neibaur also examines the impact these films had on popular culture, an influence that resonates in the cinema of fear today. 
  From the world premiere of Dracula to the 1956 release of The Creature Walks among Us, Universal excelled at scaring viewers of all ages—and even elicited a few chuckles along the way by pitting their iconic creatures against the comedic pair of Abbott and Costello. The Monster Movies of Universal Studios captures the thrills of these films, making this book a treat for fans of the golden age of horror cinema.

  The Rainbow Age of Television -...

  With the last decade's television boom across a multitude of platforms, American audiences are being treated to a cascade of shows that some have trumpeted as a second Golden Age. But something completely new is stirring, too—the Rainbow Age. For the first time in the history of American television, we have shows in which LGBTQIA+ characters have evolved from being an anomaly to being an almost given and celebrated presence on the small screen. But what more can queer TV do? Is each new queer character really breaking ground? And has the curse of the fictional dead lesbian finally been defeated? 
   
   
   
  The Rainbow Age of Television tackles these questions and more as author Shayna Maci Warner tracks the history and evolution of LGBTQIA+ icons across the televised ages and into the future—from the first televised queer kiss (we think) to the shows that are making household names and heroes of queer characters. Warner uses original interviews with queer TV icons along with detailed history to investigate the constraints under which queer people have been allowed to exist on American television. The Rainbow Age of Television explores why queer people are so invested in—and conflicted by—the kinds of storytelling that TV has to offer. Above all, it's a celebration of the LGBTQIA+ shows, their characters, and their creators that define this new age in television.

  Radio Phoenix, a dodgy little Australian community radio station broadcasting in the 1960's, held together with gaffer tape, bad decisions, and a mostly inept voluntary crew who probably shouldn’t even be trusted with electricity!  
  At the helm is Mick, the self-appointed boss — a bloke who reckons the world owes him a living and runs the joint by rules he makes up as he goes.  
  Then it all goes pear-shaped - In a moment of absolute madness the station is accidentally burnt to the ground! 
  With the town-folk breathing down their necks rumours of alien visitations, and a hard deadline looming.  The race is on to get Radio Phoenix back on air before the locals completely lose the plot ... and their minds! 
  Armed with no money, no brains, bugger-all common sense, and a truckload of bad luck, the question isn’t how they’ll pull it off— or if they’ll torch what’s left of the town along with it?
