The Film Zine Project

Welcome!

Before there were blogs (and for that matter, before there was the Internet), people found out about genre films via fanzines. These self-published magazines often had short print runs, but zine publishers traded with each other, thus expanding their word of mouth.

As time progresses, information about them gets lost to history. This page will endeavour to preserve that legacy. In recent years, there has been a “comeback” of print zines, and these titles will be observed here too. The links below will feature indexes of each title’s publisher, contributors and contents, and will be updated as more information becomes available.

This project is always going to be a work in progress, so check back soon! We also welcome and encourage contributions. If you have information or scans of zines not yet featured below, feel free to reach out via our contact page!

Thanks, and enjoy!
