zimon66 | 234 Fangorias

In today's mail came #234 the 25th Anniversary Issue - can't believe I've been reading Fangoria pretty much since it came out back in 1979!!!

25 years and I got #1 all the way up to the current issue - WOW!!!

It was #9 that got me hooked, and oddly enough it's also the most sought after (NO, not parting with it so don't ask!!!) - got Farmer Vincent ("Motel Hell") wearing a full-head pig mask and weilding a bloody chainsaw on the cover. Although the movie was so-so, I can't help but get warm fuzzys when thinking about Vincent because the importance of that issue, the one that got me started and still reading all these years.
