Books that look behind the scenes of television shows can differ in how much depth they go into. In the superficial sense some can just give a description of the characters, give episode synopsis and choose a few episodes to look at. Grimm: Below the Surface is a surprisingly in-depth look at the show that impresses with the level of detail it goes into.
People who enjoy behind the scenes books generally have different levels of knowledge about the shows. Some are fans that know a lot about the show they love, and use books like this to not only confirm that fact, but to also fill in some details. Secretly a few of these also look for mistakes or contradictions, so the writers better get their facts right. The other fans are the newcomers who want a guide to the show that they’ve discovered and want the...

More than just a TV companion book, Grimm: Aunt Marie's Book of Lore is, well, Aunt Marie's book of lore from the show. Just like the book that Nick consults to learn about his Grimm ancestry, Book of Lore is filled with sketches and handwritten notes about hexenbiests, jagerbars, blutbaden, ziegevolk, and more. The only difference is that instead of an enormous leatherbound volume on parchment paper, this book is a trade paperback, printed on regular paper with a parchment background.

"When they ran for student council... they didn't know... they'd be running for their lives!"
From no budget indie horror director Chris Lamartina (Book of Lore) and starring destined to be cult icon Shawn C. Phillips comes President's Day. The critically acclaimed slasher deals with a high school election that turns deadly when a homicidal maniac dressed like Abe Lincoln starts killing off candidates.
According to people close to the film's distribution, President's Day is heading for a early to mid July release on both the DVD and Blu-Ray formats with a director's commentary. How patriotic it would be to see some good old slashings and beheadings at the hands of one Mr. Abe Lincolin in time for the fourth of July!
President's Day, which played at various film festivals & in Maryland at various theaters was recently deemed one of the top ten horror films of 2010 by this very site.

Chris Lamartina, the director behind the destined to be cult classic that is President's Day (due out on DVD in early spring of 2011 complete with audio commentary), has just unleashed the trailer to what appears to be another cult classic in the making - Witch's Brew. Shawn C. Phillips, also from President's Day and Sasquatch Attack (aka Attack of the Sasquatch), co-stars. This was Maryland based filmmaker Chris Lamartina's highest budgeted film to date at around $13,000 (it's hard to believe, but President's Day was made for around $5000) and it also promises to have a body count that exceeds all of his films (Book of Lore, Grave Mistakes, Dead Teenagers, President's Day, Faces of Schlock [segment director]) combined.
Witch's Brew deals with two micro-brewers who screw over the town witch. She curses their latest batch of beer. From that point on, everyone who drinks it suffers a gruesome ironic death.

A college student's girlfriend goes missing and is later found murdered. The death bears a striking resemblance to a series of murders twenty years ago from a killer known as The Devil's Left Hand. He and his friends set out to to solve the mystery surrounding the death and get caught up in the town's history of unsolved crimes.
Chris Lamartina tackles a lot of material for a film with such a low budget and that ambition must be admired. Book Of Lore creates a realistic atmosphere. It captures the feeling of living in a small town. It captures the nostalgia of teenage years. There was always that one season in everyone's life in which they had an adventure they had to embark upon or a mystery that needed to be solved.

It's a big week for "versus" films as we have Avh: Alien vs. Hunter, Mega Shark vs. Giant Octopus (on Blu-ray solo and also in a two-pack with 30,000 Leagues Under the Sea), and The Navy vs. the Night Monsters. In addition a couple of other dual releases bow on May 18th: Book of Lore/Grave Mistakes and Invasion of Carol Enders/Come Die With Me.
Other promising possibilities include Freakshow, described as "a gory nod to Tod Browning's 1932 horror cult classic Freaks", Hard Ride to Hell (who doesn't love biking devil worshipers?), Haunting of Winchester House (which bills itself as a terrifying true story), Mutant Vampire Zombies From the Hood (the title alone has me sold!), Southern Gothic starring genre fave William Forsythe (it promises to combine arthouse and grindhouse for a ferocious new spin on vampire horror), and Tokyo Gore Police Version 1.5, which includes a bonus disc of follow-up short films.

America's 16th president Abraham Lincoln goes on the rampage in the independent horror film President's Day.
The film, which had an exclusive screening in Morgantown, West Virginia, last Friday, is described as "a gruesome horror-comedy that's inspired by a healthy mix of presidential politics and campy 80s slasher films, where a high school election turns deadly after a homicidal maniac dressed as Abraham Lincoln starts murdering the candidates."
The filmmakers say the result is an amalgam of Election and Sleepaway Camp Part 2. There is also social satire as all the characters have names that echo those of the last Us presidential election.
Featuring performances by George Stover (John Water's Desperate Living and Polyester), Ruby Larocca (Flesh for the Beast, Lord of the G-Strings), and Shawn C. Phillips (star of YouTube's The Don and Murph Show), President's Day made its debut at the Charles Theatre in Baltimore in February.
