The votes have been counted and the results are in - find out which titles the STARBURST team has crowned THE TOP 50 FANTASY FILMS ALL-TIME! Will your favourites make the cut? There’s only one way to find out!

Also in this issue:

- Filmmaker Leigh Whannell will soon be following up The Invisible Man with another contemporary take on a Universal Monsters classic, and he’s joining us to talk all things Wolf Man!

- The Garbage Pail Kids are turning 40 and we’re taking the opportunity to do a deep (dumpster) dive into the GPK brand’s grotesque legacy!

- Acclaimed weirdos of Canadian cinema, Guy Maddin, Galen Johnson, and Evan Johnson, have returned with Rumours, a black comedy that incorporates zombie bog men, giant brains, and a bunch of politicians extremely out of their depth. Can the trio make sense of it all? We sit down for a chinwag with them to find out. (But no, no they cannot.)

- From cosmic crimefighter to irreverent late-night talk show host and back again, Space Ghost has had one heck of a career since he first arrived on the scene in 1966 – luckily we’re on hand to make sense of it all and bring you the full story of this unconventional cartoon creation!

- The trio of stars at the front and centre of Sonic the Hedgehog 3 – actors Ben Schwartz, James Marsden, and Tika Sumpter – pay us a quick visit to tell us why they think this sequel is the best yet. Game on!

- It may have been fifty years since Ace of Wands last aired on British TV, but we’ve certainly never forgotten this spellbinding slice of kids’ telly! Join us as we revisit this cult curio in our ace new retrospective…

- The chances of Martians coming to a city near you are much lower than a million to one, as The War of the Worlds embarks on a new tour soon. Legendary composer Jeff Wayne is here to discuss this new version of his timeless classic. Ullaaaa!

- Buffyverse legend Juliet Landau and Matilda herself, Mara Wilson, spill about their new audio drama, the vampire task force series VAM PD.

...All this and much, MUCH more!
