See No Evil

Editorial Reviews
Book Description

The eagerly awaited follow-up to Kerekes & Slater's acclaimed Killing for Culture, See No Evil is an exhaustive and startling overview of Britain's ‘video nasty' culture which chronicles the phenomenal rise of video technology, ‘concern for the children', the clampdown of the Video Recordings Act (1984), and video's alleged associations with criminal activity.?

See No Evil contains studies of ‘film-induced' murder cases (Columbine and Michael ‘Rambo' Ryan), interviews with the ‘video underground' (bootleggers and dealers), plus detailed and insightful commentary on contentious movies in both Britain and the US.?

About the Author
Editor of Headpress and co-author of Killing For Culture and See No Evil, David Kerekes likes old horror comics, in particular he likes Skywald, which he came to understand at an early age were quite unlike anything else in the literary world.
