Garth Marenghi presents "Body Snatchers"
1993 87mins USA (15) Sci-Fi / Horror
Directed by Abel Ferrara Starring Terry Kinney, Meg Tilly, Gabrielle Anwar

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.

On 7th October, we present Abel Ferrara’s Body Snatchers, possibly the greatest threequel ever committed to celluloid (with the possible exception of Shark Attack 3 starring John Barrowman as Tom Cruise). 

When Environmental Protection Agency inspector Steve Malone travels to a remote military base in order to check for toxic materials, he brings his family along for the ride. After arriving at the base, his teenage daughter Marti befriends Jean Platt, daughter of the base's commander, General Platt. When people at the base begin acting strangely, Marti becomes convinced that they are slowly being replaced by plant-like aliens.

Garth Marenghi presents "In the Mouth of Madness"
1994 96mins USA (18) Horror / Fantasy
Directed by John Carpenter Starring Sam Neill, Jürgen Prochnow, Julie Carmen, Sam Neil

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.

We conclude the season on 29th October, we present John Carpenter’s In the Mouth of Madness, which some say influenced (but which I say borrowed heavily from) my own tales of a horror author menaced by his own fiction.

When horror novelist Sutter Cane (Jürgen Prochnow) goes missing, insurance investigator John Trent (Sam Neill) scrutinizes the claim made by his publisher, Jackson Harglow (Charlton Heston), and endeavors to retrieve a yet-to-be-released manuscript and ascertain the writer's whereabouts. Accompanied by the novelist's editor, Linda Styles (Julie Carmen), and disturbed by nightmares from reading Cane's other novels, Trent makes an eerie nighttime trek to a supernatural town in New Hampshire.
