Whisperer in the Dark (1980) film


CINEFAN #2 (1980) 8 1/2 x 11, 68 pages. Very Fine condition. The making of the short film THE WHISPERER IN DARKNESS based on the H.P. Lovecraft story. Articles on ROBOT MONSTER, SINBAD AND THE EYE OF THE TIGER, VAMPIRE CIRCUS and more.

For someone like Chrispy, 1980 seems like yesterday - but it was 29 years ago. Fandom was becoming intense with Lovecraft, and a result was the beginning of film making. The use of inexpensive videotape assisted aateur filmmakers as it was record and playback, and was beginning to be much easier to edit than 8 mm or other film stock.
