Welcome to the official Filmfax website. We know you'll find it's been worth the wait. Filmfax is the magazine of film and unusual television. In every issue, you'll find interviews and features on horror, science-fiction, and B-movies from the silent era through the 1970s. Since 1986, Filmfax has been the source for behind-the-scenes stories on classic monster movies, sci-fi, comedy, Westerns, and the golden age of TV. Filmfax also features reviews of the latest releases on video, DVD, and CD from these areas, as well as books, toys, and other cool stuff. Recent issues contain new installments in the memoirs of Louis "Deke" Heyward, who produced and/or wrote many of the best loved horror and beach party movies from AIP in the '60s and '70s. We're pleased to present Deke's hilarious and often insightful anecdotes. Here on our website, you'll find some features from past issues, letters, and lots of surprises to come.
