Cinefantastique - 5th ish

The cover of the 5th issue was a close-up of the beautiful Jacqueline Bisset from The Mephisto Waltz; the back was a still of Christopher Lee as Hammer's Dracula. This was the first of the 2nd volume. There was another first in this one - this was the first issue with some interior color pictures; there were only a couple, but they were beauties:
This issue contained the long-awaited 2nd part of Mark Wolf's STOP FRAME: THE HISTORY AND TECHNIQUE OF FANTASY FILM ANIMATION. This time, Wolf concentrated on front projection techniques, then made famous recently in 2001: A Space Odyssey. This article delved into composite matte photography, the optical printer and... sodium vapor

There was an interview with Alan Gadney, director of Moon Child (Moon Child?) and with Paul Wendkos, director of The Mephisto Waltz and several episodes of The Invaders. Also, a short piece on the film Flesh Gordon, the soft porn version of the Flash Gordon hero.
