Headache: A Visual Index of Faciocranial Destruction in Cinema [PRE-ORDER]

DUE TO A PRINT ERROR THESE BOOKS ARE BEING REPRINTED AND WILL NOW SHIP DECEMBER.
DATE TO BE CONFIRMED SHORTLY.

Headache documents more than five decades of exploding heads, decapitations, crushed skulls, gunshot wounds and other forms of on-screen head trauma.

Arranged chronologically from the early 1970s to the present day, the book brings together film stills from horror, science fiction, action and exploitation cinema, recording each scene in a series of frames with its title, year, director and timestamp. The result is a focused archive of practical effects, prosthetics, makeup and screen violence, tracing how filmmakers have destroyed the human head on film.
