TerrorVision is a unique blend of horror and science fiction which pays homage to some of the best movies and franchises cinematic and televisual horror history. During the course of my writing career, I have been fortunate to have worked on franchises such as The Terminator, Doctor Who, Dracula, Hellraiser and my own creations. With this in mind I believe that I can say with some authority that each of the stories present in this anthology will take you on a wild ride. The genesis of this book came from the current trend to write narratives inspired by cinema. Expanding upon the universes we only glimpse in the film’s runtime. Let’s face it, we all wanted to know more about planet LV-426 or how the machines became sentient in the Terminator universe. There are so many compelling stories to be told in these realms, far more that can be expressed in a runtime of 90 minutes or even 120.

Within this book you will find a number of excellent stories celebrating Horror films and that universe’s great directors from storytellers such as John Carpenter and Lucio Fulci to Dario Argento, Sam Raimi, David Cronenberg, Ridley Scott and more. Let me be your usher and guide you past this crimson velvet rope to the shadowy theater within. The director of this tome, Raffaele Pezzella, has carefully selected these tales to keep you up all night from vampiric cars to secret films that should never have been made. TerrorVision asks you to come into our world where cinema and those monsters are truly alive.

Dario Argento was born in Rome, Italy, on September 7, 1940.Before becoming a screenwriter and later a director, he was a film critic. Ever since his "The Bird with the Crystal Plumage" heart-stopping directorial debut in 1970, Dario Argento has been redrawing the boundaries of cinematic horror with flamboyant violence, feverish plotting, and deliriously stylized compositions. Initially associated with giallo, the pulpy Italian subgenre he helped formalize and would later take to unprecedented heights with his international breakthrough, Deep Red (1975), Argento embraces a gamut of fantastical influences—from sublime Gothic art and penny dreadfuls to Murnau, Hitchcock, and Disney with his distinctively baroque style of disorientating cinematography, stained-glass colorwork, and elaborate musical scores (often composed by his own rotating house group, Goblin). As far as horror film directors go, few are more influential and prolific than Dario Argento. With over half a century of films under his belt, the Italian Argento became a popular purveyor of giallo, but none made more of an impact than Argento.
"With his first cinematic foray, Argento instantly elevated giallo into an art form. Horror was never the same again. The director is often referred to as the Italian Alfred Hitchcock, and while both auteurs were skillful at building pressure-cookers for plots, Argento developed a trademark style, sophistication, and perversity all his own. In film after film — The Cat o’ Nine Tails, Deep Red, and Suspiria among his very best — he employed the familiar trope of a maniac on the loose to build delicious, glamorous, vivid, and vicious jigsaw puzzles, with plenty of blood, eerie electronic music, whispering psychopaths, children’s nursery rhymes, vertiginous camera angles, odd animal cameos, and, Argento’s particular forte, over-the-top baroque deaths. Argento was making murder and mayhem into something far stranger: a seductive deep dive into our dark psychologies, with all the attendant political and sexual upheaval of the time".
To celebrate the cinema of Dario Argento, Eighth Tower has called musicians from various countries and asked them their musical interpretation of his movies and his "dark giallo" universe".

REVIEWS
This Is Darkness
To celebrate the cinema of Italian film director Dario Argento, Eighth Tower Records asked musicians to provide their musical interpretation of his movies and his “dark giallo” (murder mystery horror) universe”. The resulting album, Deep Red. A Tribute to the Cinema of Dario Argento, is a wonderful collection of dark ambient, drone, noise, and industrial music that does an incredible job of capturing the essence of his films. As usual, Raffaele Pezzella has done an amazing job of producing these tracks and pulling them together to create an album with a unified tone and sense of identity, despite the range of artists and genres involved. Stunning.

this album is a collection of quite differing but, at the same time, related and same-minded artists and musical trends, but in general, this compiled album is nothing but a top-product! Eighth Tower Records

Great comeback by ZeroK, experimentation and science fiction in pure J.G. Ballard vision. This is ZeroK at its best, a real sea of oscillators. A favourite track is a tough choice, they all work perfectly together as perfect but different pieces of a puzzle (the fantastic cover portraits this perfectly). Marco Zonta

This, friends, is my only reported “favorite album of 2021.” This album- granted, an anthology- has so many textures. I noted in a 3-track ‘spanse being reminded of Four Tet (albeit beatless), Trepaningritualen (plus harmonica), and Acid Mothers Temple (sans guitar). The Sonologyst is a curatorial genius. Creativity rules this world. cielocanth
In the music of Paul Jordan, digitally manipulated field recordings become striking electronic songs that feel eerie and surreal. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 7, 2020
