Cashiers Du Cinemart Returns To Print And E-Newstands

Cashiers du Cinemart, the legendary cult movie zine that puts all other movie zines to shame, has returned with a brand new print edition that is available in a variety of formats, from an old school photocopied version to a glossy high-end print-on-demand version to an electronic Kindle edition and more.
After a four-year hiatus, publisher and editor Mike White has returned to the printed page as part of a wider “Print Is Not Dead” movement. In typical fashion of it’s earlier print editions, Cashiers du Cinemart #16 is a massive 100-plus page endeavor with contributions from numerous writers, including White himself, riffing on classic cult movies, taking apart mainstream films, analyzing obscure genres, interviewing filmmakers a ton more fun stuff.
This new print zine comes hot on the heels of the hit book Impossibly Funky: A Cashiers du Cinemart Collection, which gathered the best articles from the zine’s previous 15 issues, and comes in the wake of The Projection Booth, a new movie podcast co-hosted by White and Mondo Justin. Episodes of The Projection Booth have included audio interviews with Tom Holland, Richard Elfman, Michael Paré, Albert Pyun and other cult movie luminaries.
So, although Cashiers du Cinemart never came fully online like so many other film zines in the ’90s did, White has recently been aggressively returning to the clever, smart and unique analysis of movie history that he developed in the print world.
But, of course, White doesn’t do it all himself, but he does have the uncanny ability to attract an array of talented contributors. Some of the writers in Cashiers du Cinemart #16 include longtime contributors Skizz Cyzyk, Rich Osmond and Chris Cummins; plus, Andrew Rausch, Kyle Barrowman, Ralph Elawani, Karen Lillis and others.
To get a copy of Cashiers du Cinemart #16, you can either buy a photocopied version from White himself via PayPal, a paperback print-on-demand version from Lulu, and an electronic e-book version on Amazon’s Kindle. Other versions may be available, which you can find out about at White’s official blog, Impossible Funky.

Thanks for the plug for our show, The Projection Booth.

“interviews with Todd Holland, Richard Elfman..”
It’s Tom Holland, not Todd.
Thanks! I get those dudes confused.
