Make your way back to the eerie countryside of 18th century England with the Ultimate Guide to Blood on Satan\u2019s Claw<\/em> 1971, a classic of the folk horror genre. This luxury magazine guide explores Piers Haggard\u2019s sinister tale of demon worship and child murder, taking you to the heart of the story as you rediscover Tigon\u2019s cult favourite and enjoy a new appreciation for a truly unsettling cinematic world. The combination of professional journalism and insightful commentary makes this Blood on Satan\u2019s Claw<\/em> guide a must for any fan, and in line with the Classic Monsters Ultimate Guide series, there\u2019s a wealth of gloriously-restored stills to lure you in.<\/span><\/h2>\n

In writing the screenplay for Blood on Satan\u2019s Claw<\/em>, Robert Wynne-Simmons took inspiration from some of the most heinous crimes of the sixties, transposing his dark subject matter into a period setting that should have been charming and bucolic, but in fact descended into a nightmare of unholy conspiracy. The Blood on Satan\u2019s Claw<\/em> Ultimate Guide reveals the many layers of horror that run through this captivating, idiosyncratic 1971 slice of horror cinema, examining the contribution that it has made to the folk horror genre while celebrating the cast and crew who brought it to life. A series of thoughtful and fact-filled articles delves into the history and lasting impact of a film packed with shocking ideas.<\/p>\n

\"Blood<\/p>\n

Like the other Ultimate Guides in the Classic Monsters range, this Blood on Satan\u2019s Claw<\/em> magazine guide is written, designed and produced to the highest standard. The sturdy, shimmering gloss cover is just the beginning, with the inner pages printed on finest quality silk stock paper that marks this out as more than just a movie brochure. Printed to A4 size (210mm x 297mm), the Ultimate Guide to Blood on Satan\u2019s Claw<\/em> is a must-have piece of folk horror memorabilia.<\/p>\n

\"Blood<\/p>\n

As you dive into this Blood on Satan\u2019s Claw<\/em> guide magazine, you\u2019ll also notice the superlative quality of the many stills that illustrate it. The Classic Monsters approach to stills reproduction is one of our many hallmarks of quality: unlike cheaper newspaper-style printing, which leaves images looking flat and drained of life, we use full colour print processes throughout, so all stills – even black and white ones – are rich in detail and depth. The results mean the Blood on Satan\u2019s Claw<\/em> Ultimate Guide is like nothing you\u2019ve ever seen. No fan of the movie, or of the folk horror genre more broadly, should miss out on this glorious resource.<\/p>\n

\"Blood<\/p>\n

Alongside the motion picture itself, this guide to Blood on Satan\u2019s Claw<\/em> looks at the people who wove its seductive spell and brought us a fresh take on the idea of youthful corruption: under Haggard\u2019s direction, the cast of this powerful film brought the subtle complexities of a disintegrating rural community to life. A range of informative biographies shines a light on the lives and careers of key cast. As the nightmarishly charismatic Angel Blake, Linda Hayden gave a performance to both admire and fear, creating one of horror\u2019s most hypnotic femmes fatales, but she had a number of skilled colleagues including Patrick Wymark, Barry Andrews, Michele Dotrice and Tamara Ustinov. In addition, the Blood on Satan\u2019s Claw<\/em> Ultimate Guide introduces the crew whose efforts resulted in such an arresting motion picture, from director Haggard to writer Robert Wynne-Simmons and other creatives including cinematographer Dick Bush and composer Marc Wilkinson. This haunting piece of cinema was nothing if not a team effort.<\/p>\n

\"Blood<\/p>\n

The idea of the younger generation rising up against the adult order never loses its power: the concept of change, for good or ill, is an evergreen. The Blood on Satan\u2019s Claw<\/em> Ultimate Guide looks at the uneasy concepts presented in the movie, offering plenty of food for thought alongside a stunningly illustrated journey through the film itself.<\/p>\n

\"Blood<\/p>\n

Reverend Fallowfield\u2019s sermon is getting a little dull – how about we head to the ruined church in the woods and see what Angel is up to? She always has ideas for exciting games, and she says her new friend will be making an appearance soon. But first, let\u2019s find a quiet corner to read the Ultimate Guide to Blood on Satan\u2019s Claw<\/em>. It\u2019s packed with information and those stills are so beautiful, it\u2019s almost sinful. But where shall we go to find some peace? There seems to be someone in the woodshed so we certainly can\u2019t go in there\u2026<\/p>\n
