With spring come many Phantoms, some new faces and some old favorites!The Chasmwoe of Phantom Record
With spring come many Phantoms, some new faces and some old favorites!The Chasmwoe of Phantom Records: A Nocture for the Written Word by Gothic Romantic is a weird little story about a woman and a man in a mask getting stuck spending the night at Phantom Records, a supposedly haunted music store. It explicitly compares the masked man to the literary Phantom right in the blurb, but sometimes that means they’re trying NOT to connect them…Erik by Liz Gavin is a modern-day steamy romance version of the story in which Erik is the lead singer of Muse of Darkness, a rock band, and is tutoring Christine in music while she tries to investigate the band’s operations and avoid her own dark history.The Phantom by Greer Rivers is still awaiting official release, but it bills itself as a dark modern retelling of the Phantom story, so those who like to scratch that contemporary billionaire/kidnapper/weird kink club itch will have something new in that vein coming soon!The Phantom of the Operator by Tracy D Ellis is a modern-day retelling of the story in which a young woman buys a new cell phone but discovers that it mysteriously has a number in it already, belonging to a bewitchingly voiced man on the other end of the line who promises to watch over her…Phantom’s Thrall by Jessamine Rue is an experience many of you have been waiting for: a steamy romance and sex version of the Phantom story, set in its original time period, but with a supernatural Phantom and a “twist” about what his actual problem is. Oh, and also Christine is banging the Phantom, Raoul, Mathieu (a genderswapped version of Meg Giry), and, of all people, JOSEPH BUQUET. You can’t help but be fascinated.And, for those who have been desperately awaiting what weird old Phantom movie would come out in a deluxe blu-ray set next, your wait is over! The answer is Dario Argento’s infamous 1998 giallo horror film Phantom of the Opera, starring Julian Sands + his leather pants full of rats and Asia Argento + her fully exposed nipples. The set comes with not only interviews with Argento, the producer, and the set designer, but also has a full audio commentary track narrated by film historians.And thus another month has passed us by! -- source link
