Forbidden Planet film fanatics unite! This September 18th from 6 to 8PM, legendary horror film journalist Michael Gingold is back with a pair of books to blow your mind!
We had Michael here for the release of his amazing Ad Nauseam from 1984 Publishing, one of Forbidden Planet’s best selling books of 2018. A beautiful oversized art book packed with classic 80’s horror movie newspaper advertisements accompanied by reviews from the films’ original release and peppered with personal Gingold commentary.
Join Michael here at Forbidden Planet NYC on Wednesday September 18th and celebrate the continuation of this series with the release of AD NAUSEAM II: NEWSPRINT NIGHTMARES OF THE 1990s a& 2000s and AD ASTRA: 20 YEARS OF NEWSPAPER ADs FOR SCI-FI & FANTASY FILMS. That’s right – TWO more massive hardcover books celebrating the lost art of genre film newspaper ads. More ads, more classic film reviews, and more of Michael’s personal take on the subjects covered within. So mark your calendar for September 18th, meet the mad man behind these essential tomes and get your hands on some autographed copies.

Matt D has been a manager, buyer and event coordinator at Forbidden Planet since 2005 or maybe it was 2006. Who can remember? We didn't even have computers back then. A native New Yorker from the borough of Queens, raised on Sunday Funnies, Monster Movies and Rock N' Roll. What better place to end up than Forbidden Planet where he can use his position to influence the city's pop culture. A responsibility he takes seriously more now than ever due to New York's consistent change for the worse. The last thing NYC needs is another cafe or bank so thank whatever it is you believe in that Forbidden Planet is here to stay. Beyond the walls of FP, Matt is a publicly recognized expert in cult and horror cinema with a focus on VHS. He is the founder of Horror Boobs a collective that books screenings and distributes weirdo films, the producer of the documentary Adjust Your Tracking: The Untold Story of the VHS collector, the publisher of the Blood Video zine, and is regrettably responsible for resurrecting the career of schizophrenic Shot-on Video director Carl J Sukenick.
