Groovy Age of Horror presents I’m in a Jess Franco state of mind, a blog by Robert Monell on the films of Jess Franco. Robert Monell is a connoisseur of Jess Franco (who I like to call the European Roger Corman) and “Euro trash” cinema in general. He is part of the vibrant internet community called Euro Trash Paradise, which can be a viewed as a continuation of the magazine Euro Trash cinema.
European Trash Cinema (magazine) issue 16
European trash cinema has als had its share of academic attention, perhaps most notably in the work of Joan Hawkins with titles such as Sleaze Mania, Euro-trash, and High Art (1999).
Thanks for your comments on my blog and the link! We have lots of exciting plans for the future: reviews, interviews, graphics… Everyone is welcome, Jess Franco fans or not and comments are encouraged.
Best Regards. RM
You’re most welcome.
I am looking forward to your posts.
