Greetings, traveller. I’m Garth Marenghi, horror novelist, flick director and star of the silver scream (namely as Dr Rick Dagless in my groundbreaking televisionary masterpiece, Darkplace.)

Join me this October as I celebrate publication of the third novel in my bestselling TerrorTome trilogy, This Bursted Earth with an especially curated season (by yours truly) of horror films which have influenced (and in many cases stolen from) my own creative juices.

First up we have a Satanic double-bill of Race With the Devil and Brotherhood of Satan on October 1st, both of which bear an uncanny resemblance to my own Satanic tale in a similar vein, (available in the aforementioned and aforecoming This Bursted Earth.)

RACE WITH THE DEVIL (1975) : Roger (Peter Fonda), his friend Frank (Warren Oates), and their wives (Lara Parker, Loretta Swit) are heading from San Antonio to the wilderness of rural Texas for some off-road motocross. What they find instead is a Satanic cult sacrifice, and they are unfortunate enough to be caught observing the ritual. Naturally, this doesn't sit too well with the cult members. Now Roger and Frank are on the run from what is apparently a very sizable Texan Satanist community.

THE BROTHERHOOD OF SATAN (1971): Widower Ben (Charles Bateman) is taking his young daughter (Geri Reischi) and new girlfriend (Ahna Capri) to visit a relative when they find a grizzly car accident by the highway. They report the incident to the sheriff (L.Q. Jones) in nearby Hillsboro, N.M., and discover the town in the grips of a deadly fear. In the past 72 hours, 26 people have died, and 11 children have gone missing. As Ben investigates, a local priest (Charles Robinson) informs him that a Satan-worshipping cult is to blame.

Please Note: This Double Feature will feature a LIVE INTRO from Garth Marenghi. There will be a 20-25 minute break between features.
