## Description

Product Description          An intimate look at the extraordinary, often ostracized, and now largely forgotten artwork of Pulp Fiction Magazines. For the first time in a documentary film, we take a look at the world of pulp fiction with exclusive images, and interviews with some of the very artists who created these amazing popular culture masterpieces.             Review          Three Stars. This documentary takes a look at the seductively lurid magazine covers that even some of their artists sadly seemed to disown. This nifty little history, subtitled "Cheap Thrills & Painted Nightmares", examines those sensationalistic crime-fantasy-romance magazines that eventually seemed silly with the advent of World War II. For the most part, original canvases were discarded, but rare survivors are good for lots of green. USA Today 08/10/07 --USA Today

This was a fun, informative and interesting video. However, I was disappointed that there was no mention of the man I consider the best pulp artist of all, Robert Maguire. It was nice to see a face put to the man who publishes Hard Case Crime and the video definitely has earned a space on my shelf of artist bio's.

This is a fabulous documentary about a very appealing - to me, at least - American art genre, pulp illustration, which combined highly accomplished craftsmanship with tremendous imagination in what were often (certainly in the sci fi area) ground-breaking images. The artists were as good as anyone who made their living painting; many of those discussed in this film, Frank Paul, Rafael deSoto, Virgil Finlay, Hannes Bok, Margaret Brundage, rank as the best illustrators of all time. As Frank Frazetta was for Conan, J, Allen St.John for Burroughs, Jno. O'Neill for Frank Baum, so were these artists perfectly suited to the lurid adventure and sex of the pulps.Weird Tales! Planet Stories! The Spicy mags! Margaret Brundage! An Oak Park, Illinois housewife, she created the most sensuous, rich, savage images dripping with sexuality. Died in near poverty, poor lady, and now her works (if they can be found) would sell for many tens of thousands of dollars. Frank Paul: not the greatest at drawing people, nevertheless his colors and monsters explode off the covers, psychedelia way before its time.Robert Lesser, king of pulp art (and space toy) collectors, is featured throughout. Excellent film, very comprehensive given its length, recommend highly though I really don't need the competition in acquiring the magazines it may provoke. Still, I'm out of wall space.
