THE FORGOTTEN FILM CLUB: BOOK ONE : MORONS FROM OUTER SPACE

THE FORGOTTEN FILM CLUB: BOOK ONE : MORONS FROM OUTER SPACE

Frank Turner
4.3/5 ( ratings)
Read Download
WELCOME TO THE FORGOTTEN FILM CLUB.

A journey through unseen, unloved and unremembered movies.

An ongoing series of books exploring films forgotten by society. This is not an exercise in kitsch and not a hilarious plan to 'out' films which have dated badly. It's about finding and exploring films which attempted to , but ultimately did not, make a mark on the mainstream. Taking a look at them critically and philosophically, talking to the people involved in their production and having a think about their place int he world now.

Each book deals exclusively with just one film. A forgotten film. Maybe it'll be a diamond in the rough, an overlooked masterpiece or just a film which ultimately didn't work but had a great story behind it.

Book one takes a look at 1985 British sci-fi comedy Morons From Outer Space. Directed by Mike Hodges it was designed to launch the cinematic careers of TV comedy double-act Mel Smith & Griff Rhys Jones. It failed, and the story behind it is hilarious and fascinating.

It features a foreword by rock star and Morons fan Frank Turner.

If you love films and are fascinated by how they get made, why they get made, and what happens to them once they're released, you should join the club.
