When Marcus Hearn became editor of Doctor Who Magazine i did wonder what direction it would slowly move in. Hearn being the official historian of Hammer Films and also a documentary maker for StudioCanal's Hammer Blu-rays.
Now that fellow horror expert Alan Barnes is assistant editor it's become clearer with the magazine looking at the history of the show more than the current series.
Since Hearn took the reigns we've had features by horror expert Jonathan Rigby semi regularly and in this current issue another Hammer expert in Kevin Lyons does a huge feature on Milton Subotsky and his company Amicus. Every issue there's some sort of nod to British horror but this issue is full of it with images from various Amicus films such as
Torture Garden and
Dr. Terror's House of Horrors.
This issues text free subscriber cover is a thing of beauty.
