Matt Blake

Matt Blake has been writing about cult European cinema since the heyday of the fanzine in the 1990s. After editing a few issues of the short-lived, much lamented The Cheeseplant he released his first book, The EuroSpy Guide, co-written with David Deal, in 2004. More books have followed: Fantastikal Diabolikal Supermen, Giorgio Ardisson: The Italian James Bond, In the Name of the Law and Science Fiction, Italian Style. When not distracted an otherwise long-forgotten film he can usually be found wandering around the countryside near his home in Lewes or listening to discordant electronic music.
