Mods and Shockers: British Horror of the 60s edited by Eric McNaughton and Darrell Buxton

We Belong Dead – October 2025 – 466 pages

BEWARE THE BEAT…!
If you thought that groovy British film fare of the 1960s was all about minis and mini skirts, welcome to a world where everything gets just a little spookier and deadlier. A place, perhaps, where Carnaby Street goes carnivore, the Mersey Sound turns murderous, and Geoff Hurst’s winning goal isn’t the only thing that crosses a line…

The creepy, chilling cinema of that most fashionable and epochal decade captured a true tone of terror. ‘Mods & Shockers’, the new book from the ‘We Belong Dead’ stable, brings you the full startling story, with reviews and comment on more than 150 monstrous, morbid, macabre movies from the finest talents at Hammer, Amicus, Tigon, and beyond.

Meet the ghastly Gorgon, the wicked Witchfinder, the fiendish Fu Manchu, the diabolical Devil Doll; visit the Theatre of Death, enter the Shuttered Room, go Berserk, and encounter the Very Edge of Nightmare, Hysteria, Repulsion, and sheer Naked Evil, as we invite you to experience the Horror of it All!

There are two different covers that you are welcome to choose between. If we run out of one, we will substitute the other.
