The Ghastly One
The 42nd Street Netherworld of Director Andy Milligan (Nicolas Winding Refn Presents)
Jimmy McDonough
Explore the twisted universe of a maniac filmmaker who made 29 exploitation movies from 1965 to 1988, including Gutter Trash, Torture Dungeon, and The Ghastly Ones. Based on hundreds of interviews and rare stills, this book delves into the mind of Andy Milligan, a sadist and misogynist who brought a crazed intensity to his work. Discover a tale of violence, physical, sexual, and psychological, and a vivid portrait of New York's infamous Times Square. The Ghastly One is not just a book about a lone lunatic with a movie camera, but a funny, unbelievable, and oddly moving history of exploitation films.
