"A group of teenagers, en route to attend a rock concert, lose their way when their car runs out of fuel in the dead of night. They find themselves in an unfamiliar rural backwater where they are confronted by flesh-eating zombies and a psychotic cannibalistic killer dressed in a sheet. It could be the plot to a thousand Hollywood horror films but while these teenagers may dress, talk and smoke dope like young Americans they are in fact young Pakistanis, and the film -
Zibahkhana or Hell's Ground -
is the first modern horror film to be filmed in Pakistan."

"The year is 2010
and the European Union has rejected Turkey. Fascist governments have come to power in Germany, Austria and France and are inciting violence against resident Turks and Muslims. A vengeful Turkey joins forces with Russia and declares war against the EU. Turkish commandos besiege Berlin, obliterate Europe and take control of the Continent.
"Some critics will be quick to dismiss 'The Third World War,' a new futuristic novel by a 30-year-old Turkish writer,
Burak Turna, as the wild imaginings of a conspiracy theorist and literary shock jock - and in many ways it is."
Turna is also the author of
Metal Storm, which revolves around a US invasion of Turkey. Both books have been runaway best-sellers.

A little local color
to remind us of what we're fighting for.* Not to mention all
these folks: too pretty for another city. Then there's
this guy, who needs a place to return to, slasher movie-style.
*The woman's 80 years old, fer crissakes!

"A 2,600-year-old corpse
has been discovered in the moors of northern Germany.
It's not the only one. Such finds are frequent, but have posed an increasingly large riddle: Why were so many of the bodies victims of violence and dismemberment?"

"A shocking discovery
has been made deep within the text of
Moby Dick. The great codes researcher
Michael Drosnin, who pioneered the art of predicting assassinations using
Equidistant Letter Sequences, is himself encoded in a famous book. And directly across his name appears the text 'Him to have been killed'! Yes, folks, using the method that Drosnin himself uses, and the text that he himself chose as a challenge to his
critics, we find that Drosnin himself will be murdered in a grotesque manner."
