"The Connoisseur's guide to horror and exploitation in the cinema".
Video Hound's Cult Flicks and Trash Pics.

Just what is the Exploitation Journal?
The Exploitation Journal was first published in 1987. It is dedicated to the serious study of exploitation and drive-in cinema of the 1960's and 70's, both national and international. What sets it apart from the other zines of this nature is that 1} it surfaced long before any of the current crop of terrible imitators saw the light of day, 2} it features well researched articles as opposed to zines that focus only on reviewing videos and telling you the reader things you already know, 3} we feature up-close and personal interviews with folks no one else even touches on (e.g... film producer Don Davison, director Norman J. Warren and actors such as Mel Wells). We are selective with our advertisers and are not under the control of the major video chains that specialize in sleaze cinema. We call things as we see them, which has brought us many fans and just as many enemies.

We started out as a type written xeroxed fanzine and have grown into a more professionally produced read. Richard Klemensen, publisher of Little Shoppe of Horrors called us "one of the best examples of desk top publishing". But be the judge of this yourself! Pick up our latest issue and satiate your curiosity. Each issue is $5 including shipping. $8 for folks overseas via surface mail, $10 for airmail. Add extra money to International check or Moneyorder, or I'll add it when I process your credit card.

Is here at last!

HOW OFTEN DO WE PUBLISH?
EXJ is published whenever we get to it, Literally! Between adding to the website and attempting to get film projects off the ground, there is no way that the Journal is going to see printing more than once every year or two. Please be patient, however, as each issue will be well worth the wait, packed with never before seen info and stills that make us the longest running fanzine around! Questions? Send them to: contact.
