The Boys in the Band's debut was revolutionary for its fictional but frank presentation of a male homosexual subculture in Manhattan. Based on Mart Crowley's hit Off-Broadway play from 1968, the film's two-hour running time approximates real time, unfolding at a birthday party attended by nine men whose language, clothing, and behavior evoke a range of urban gay "types." Although various popular critics, historians, and film scholars over the years have offered cursory acknowledgment of the film's importance, more substantive research and analysis have been woefully lacking. The film's neglect among academics belies a rich and rewarding object of study. The Boys in the Band merits not only the close reading that should accompany such a well-made text but also recognition as a landmark almost ideally situated to orient us amid the highly complex, shifting cultural terrain it occupied upon its release-and has occupied since.

As the alien Authority’s invasion begins, mankind stands on the brink of annihilation. Cassius Stevenson and his brother Jesse Fisher - descendants of the planet Haven’s resistance forces - must forge alliances with the embittered factions on Earth to defend against the brutal attack. But the Authority has only begun to fight. When their terrible new weapon sends Earth’s fragile coalition into turmoil, humanity’s last chance at survival lies in the hands of the two brothers, whose fates are linked more closely than they ever imagined.

Pearlbreaker Jesse Fisher is on a mission to free as many Drifters as he can - ignoring the direct orders of Captain Alkine. When a mysterious red pearl sets Jesse free from the Skyship brig, he uses it as an opportunity to rescue Cassius from Theo, Madame’s newest protégé. With Skyship agents in hot pursuit, Cassius and Jesse learn they are the children of Haven rebels, sent to Earth to continue the battle against Haven’s totalitarian regime. Outnumbered, their only hope for survival rests on an uneasy alliance with Madame and their other Earth-bound enemies.

T.S. Eliot tells us in his poem “The Hollow Men” that the world will end not with a bang, but with a whimper. Well, he was wrong. Dead wrong. When death and destruction come, the screams of terror, horror, and excruciating pain will rend the blood-red sky and be heard across the world. When your number is up, there’s nowhere to run and no place to hide. You can't cheat death; death will find you. It always does.

There is something quite special about this fine collection of tales of terror from the Sceptered Isle, each and every one crafted in the dead of the night by twisted, fevered minds, who have brought the darkest denizens of the blackest shadows crawling and slithering to life to terrify those brave souls amongst you who dare to listen.

Nach dem Verrat von Istvaan beginnt Horus seinen Feldzug gegen den Imperator, einen galaxisweiten Krieg, dessen letztes Ziel Terra selbst darstellt. Doch der Weg zur letzten Konfrontation zwischen Vater und Sohn ist lang - sieben Jahre der Kämpfe, Ränke, Pläne und Bündnisse, die zwischen den entfernten Sternen geschmiedet werden. Unbekannte Ereignisse aus den dunkelsten Jahren der Horus-Häresie kommen ans Licht und Begebenheiten werden enthüllt, die das Imperium in seinen Grundfesten erschüttern.

Die Flammen des Krieges lodern immer heller, während das Imperium sich spaltet. In der ganzen Galaxis wählen Krieger ihre Seite und kämpft Bruder gegen Bruder.
