HOLLYWOOD'S HELLFIRE CLUB: The Misadventures of 'The Bundy Drive Boys'




HOLLYWOOD'S HELLFIRE CLUB: The Misadventures of 'The Bundy Drive Boys'

They made fans and censors go crazy, and spent fortunes faster than they made them, some were accused of committing statutory rape on necrophiliac teenage girls, and they swilled immeasurable quantities of booze during week-long parties.

They were 'The Bundy Drive Boys' and they made the 'Rat Pack' look like Cub Scouts. 

Includes remarkable material on: W.C. Fields, Errol Flynn, John Barrymore, John Carradine, Ben Hecht, Gene Fowler, Sadakichi Hartmann, John Decker, Thomas Mitchell, Roland Young, Anthony Quinn, Alan Mowbray etc....

Their self-destructiveness was spectacular, the misanthropy profound, but behind the boozy bravado was a devoted mutual affection. 'The Bundy Drive Boys' story has never been told so well and so completely as within the pages of this book, Hollywood’s Hellfire Club.

TECHNOLOGICAL SLAVERY: The Collected Writings of Theodore J. Kaczynsky a.k.a. 'The UNABOMBER'


TECHNOLOGICAL SLAVERY: The Collected Writings of Theodore J. Kaczynsky a.k.a. "The UNABOMBER" Introduction by David Skrbina

Theodore Kaczynski saw violent collapse as the only way to bring down the techno-industrial system, and in more than a decade of mail bomb terror he killed three people and injured 23 others.


One does not need to support the actions that landed Kaczynski in supermax prison to see the value of his essays disabusing the notion of heroic technology while revealing the manner in which it is destroying the planet.

For the first time, readers will have an uncensored personal account of his anti-technology philosophy, including a corrected version of the notorious “Unabomber Manifesto,” Kaczynski’s critique of anarcho-primitivism, and essays regarding “The Coming Revolution.”

Dr. David Skrbina, who teaches philosophy at the University of Michigan, Dearborn, provides fascinating excerpts from his correspondence with the man he calls “a revolutionary for our times.”

The UNABOMBER in his own words.

One day in 2005 at our bookshop (Unusual Books, Downtown L.A.) I received a letter from Ted Kaczynski  - we corresponded briefly and I suggested he contact Feral House Books (where I also worked), that they may be interested in publishing some of his writing - a couple of years later - here are the results in book form.

TRUE VAMPIRES: Past and Present - by Sondra London


TRUE VAMPIRES: Past and Present - by Sondra London

Illustrated by Nicolas Claux, 'The Vampire of Paris"

Some vampires are not fictional creatures. This book examines the real vampires and cannibals whose crimes have contributed to the fearsome mythos. TRUE VAMPIRES takes you into the minds of real blood-sucking and flesh eating killers from Romania and Russia, France and Wales, Brazil and South Africa, to the hills of Kentucky and the streets of Los Angeles. This book is a collection of the most extreme cases of vampirism and cannibalism known to mankind - Killers portraits throughout the book were painted by Nicolas Claux, 'The Vampire of Paris.'

Included in this deeply disturbing study of vampirism and cannibalism are:

Armin Meiwes, Manuela & Daniel Ruda, Peter Kurten, Rod Ferrell, Issei Sagawa, Natasha Cornett, Fritz Haarmann, Kyle Hulbert, Matthew Hardman, Ed Gein, Nathaniel Bar-Jonah, Henry Lee Lucas, Albert Fish, Big Lurch, Arthur Shawcross, Ottis Toole, Andrei Chikatilo, Richard Trenton Chase, Nicolas Claux, Vlad the Imapaler and many others.

"Sondra London knows her vampires - not the fictional ones that spring full-blown from the heads of novelists but the genuine articles, the real vampires who kill and suck blood and leave a scarlet trail of terror in the night. This book is her best." ----Jack Olsen, author of, Son: A Psychopath and His Victims

"Vampires exist! They've been among us for centuries, and they're hiding in plain sight today. Sondra London proves it beyond a reasonable doubt in this incredible work of investigative reporting, historical sleuthing and forensic interpretation. This is a frightening, fascinating page-turner that drives a stake into the heart of disbelievers, turns true crime into literature and somehow even humanizes the hideous criminals who are driven by a bloodlust they can't control." ---- Burt Kearns, author of, Tabloid Baby

"Covering every aspect of a darkly fascinating subject from myth and folklore to history and psychology, TRUE VAMPIRES is at its unnerving best in revealing the existence of the monsters among us; those real-life beings possessed by an unslakable thirst for human gore. Sondra London has produced a classic of the genre." ----Harold Schechter, author of, A to Z of Serial Killers

PHILOSOPHY IN THE BOUDOIR & Lusts of the Libertines - By The Marquis de Sade


PHILOSOPHY IN THE BOUDOIR w/ Lusts of the Libertines

By The Marquis de Sade
PHILOSOPHY IN THE BOUDOIR is the most concise and the most representative text of all the Marquis de Sade's works - containing his renegade philosophies and notorious doctrine of libertinage expounded in full - together with liberal doses of unbridled eroticism, cruelty and violent sexuality.

This edition also includes LUSTS OF THE LIBERTINES an explicit translation of the "447 complex, criminal and murderous lusts of the Libertines" as documented by de Sade in his accursed atrocity bible THE 120 DAYS OF SODOM - a catalog of debaucheries still unequalled in the history of transgressive literature - still absolutely shocking to this very day !!
