{"product_id":"last-orgy-by-the-cemetery-david-kerekes-9781915316493","title":"Last Orgy by the Cemetery: A 'Video Nasties' Synopsis, Film by Shocking Film!","description":"The meteoric rise of video technology in the early 1980s was met with suspicion in some quarters. Pressure groups found certain videocassettes objectionable and 'video nasties' became a catch-all term for undesirable films or films potentially liable for prosecution under the Obscene Publications Act 1959. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book is not a discussion of the video nasties themselves, but instead gives a detailed synopsis of each film, from \u003ci\u003eAbsurd\u003c\/i\u003e to \u003ci\u003eZombie Flesh Eaters\u003c\/i\u003e, without criticism or commentary -- 75 video nasty plots without dissection. The book may be considered a nostalgic reverie for those fans and collectors who don't have the fortitude to sit through these films again and would like an aide-memoire means of revisiting them. What's more, many of the films are cheap and exploitative, little masterclasses of cutting corners -- the brutal logic of their storylines when laid bare make for entertaining reading. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe material contained in LAST ORGY BY THE CEMETERY originally appeared in a different form in the authors' \u003ci\u003eSee No Evil: Banned Films and Video Controversy\u003c\/i\u003e, published by Headpress in 2000 and now out of print.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e David Kerekes,David Slater\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1915316499\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781915316493\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Headpress\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/14\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 176\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.62lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.62h x 6.50w x 0.50d","brand":"David Kerekes","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47580122218751,"sku":"9781915316493","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_9cda405b-8eca-4660-bf54-81ac47fd7d1b.jpg?v=1763878951","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/last-orgy-by-the-cemetery-david-kerekes-9781915316493","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
