Killer Collectibles highlights five of the most exciting new horror products released each and every week, from toys and apparel to artwork, records, and much more.
Here are the coolest horror collectibles unveiled this week!
Godzilla: The Official Guide to the King of the Monsters from Welbeck Publishing
Godzilla has been the subject of a number of books over the franchise’s 68-year history, but Godzilla: The Official Guide to the King of the Monsters aims to be the ultimate illustrated reference book.
Authorized by Godzilla creators Toho, the 256-page beast explores all 32 Japanese Godzilla films with facts and figures, actors and locations, co-starring monsters, and illustrated material.
Welbeck Publishing will release it in hardcover and e-book on October 25. It’s written by Graham Skipper, who you may recognize for his roles in such indie horror gems as Beyond the Gates, VFW, and Tales of Halloween.
Heartland of Darkness Blu-ray from Visual Vengeance
You probably haven’t heard of Heartland of Darkness. You wouldn’t even recognize its alternate titles, Blood Church and Fallen Angels. That’s because the 1989 horror film was abandoned before release and long thought lost.
Visual Vengeance is releasing it on Blu-ray — the first time it will be available on any format — on November 8. Scream queen Linnea Quigley stars. Eric Swelstad (who approved the new edition) writes and directs.
Heartland of Darkness has been newly mastered in standard definition from original tape and 16mm film elements. Special features include a 1990 workprint version of the film, three audio commentaries, a 40-minute behind-the-scenes featurette, an interview with Quigley, and more.
The limited edition set comes with a slipcover, Linnea Quigley mini-poster, prayer cloth, VHS-inspired stickers, and a 6-page booklet featuring liner notes by Weng’s Chop’s Tony Strauss.
The Munsters Vinyl Soundtrack from Waxwork Records
I know a lot of people have already written off Rob Zombie’s take on The Munsters, but its soundtrack looks gorgeous. Due out on October 18 via Waxwork Records, the double-LP album is pressed on 180-gram “Herman & Lily” (Disc 1: black and green swirl, Disc 2: black and white swirl) colored vinyl.
The score is composed by Zeuss (31, 3 from Hell) and includes new songs by Rob Zombie. It’s housed in a gatefold jacket with matte satin coating featuring art by Graham Humphreys, 24-page booklet, liner notes by Zombie, 12×12 art print, and printed inner sleeves.
Scream Print from Electric Zombie
Most Scream artwork, understandably, focuses on Ghostface, but Electric Zombie’s new poster offers a crisp look at Drew Barrymore in what is arguably the greatest cold open in horror history. I love the elegant simplicity of Kyle Crawford’s design, which is available as a 24×36 poster for $24.99.
Queer for Fear Shirts from Fright-Rags
In celebration of Queer for Fear: The History of Queer Horror — premiering today on Shudder — Fright-Rags has released shirts featuring Alaska Thunderfuck as Carrie and Mayhem Miller as Bride of Frankenstein, photographed by Tayo Kuku Jr.
Available in unisex and women’s styles, they’re $30 each. 100% of profits will be donated to the Los Angeles LGBT Center and My Friend’s Place. Pre-orders are open through Monday, October 3.
