Dracula: The Final Author's Edit (Ldp Litt. Fantas Ser.)
by Bram Stoker'The mouth was redder than ever, for on the lips were gouts of fresh blood, which trickled from the corners of the mouth and ran over the chin and neck - It seemed as if the whole awful creature were simply gorged with blood; he lay like a filthy leech, exhausted with his repletion.'When Jonathan Harker visits Transylvania to help Count Dracula purchase a London house he is disturbed by the horrifying discoveries he makes in his client's castle. But worse, Harker's actions introduce Dracula to London. Soon afterwards, the Count embarks on a reign of seduction and terror. And all, it seems, who encounter the charismatic Eastern European aristocrat - a succession of madmen, physicians and beautiful women - are never seen in daylight again...Bram Stoker's DRACULA has inspired countless movies, books, and plays since it's first publication in 1897. Few, if any, have been fully faithful to Stoker's original, best-selling novel of mystery and horror, love and death, sin and redemption. But in DRACULA, Stoker created a new word for terror, a new myth to feed our nightmares, and a character who will outlive us all.

Fan Phenomena: The Big Lebowski (Fan Phenomena (PDF))
by Zachary IngleInitially a box office flop The Big Lebowski has spawned a multicity festival, college level courses, and its own religion. Fans of the Coen brothers’ masterful dark comedy gather in movie theatres and bowling alleys across the country to quote along with the film, imbibe white russians, and admire the Dude’s. Contributors take a close look at the film’s phenomenalimpact on popular culture and examine the script’s rich philosophical implications, whether it is the nihilism within the film itself or the Dudeism that Jeff Bridges’ character bred (the ‘Church of the Latter-Day Dude’ has attracted more than 70,000 official adherents). Covering issues concerning gender and sexuality within the film the essays here also explore the gender divides the film has created, such as male versus female fandom rivalry at festivals. These gatherings have sprung up all around America and have even expanded globally, and the book takes an inside look at these events and includes interviews with Lebowski festival organizers and authors of other fan books and academic treatises. In all, these essays are an essential companion for one of the greatest films ever made, in the parlance of our times..
