Marc Russell

The laws of man end at Baron Sardonicus' gate. When lights burn inside, the castle fa ade looks like a skull. Wolfbane and hemlock grow in the garden. Why is Sardonicus masked? The peasants do not know. They only know that within the castle, there are no mirrors. This book is a tribute to prize-winning author Ray Russell (1924-1999), whose works include the novella "Sardonicus" and the script for the 1961 movie adaptation Mr. Sardonicus. "Sardonicus" is reprinted herein - alongside the new sequel "Sardonicus Reincarnate" by Ray's daughter Amanda Russell; a reminiscence of Ray by his son Marc Russell; a Mr. Sardonicus production history and extensive cast bios; an examination of its score, and an introduction by its leading lady Audrey Dalton. This Scripts from the Crypt book is also armed to the teeth with the usual blitz of bonus material.

The people are revolting. Government has been contracted out to Artificial Intelligences. England's South Coast has been partitioned by a steel wall. And now, a non-random quantum event has just started the countdown to meltdown. What could possibly go right?

"How far must we go? What lines must we cross?"
