Inhaltsangabe

Omar Ali Khan, a sage of Lollywood’s labyrinthine world, delivers a laugh-out-loud anthology of over 160 Pakistani film reviews in ‘Loose Canons and Dangerous Curves.’ Offering a fresh perspective on Pakistani cinema, this encyclopedia is a gutsy report of films that have struck a chord with the public psyche, including under-appreciated and overlooked titles.

A must-read for anyone interested in the links between Pakistani politics, popular culture, and society, as reflected through the nation’s most loved yet underrated artistic medium: cinema.

Über die Autorinnen und Autoren

Studied Film at Emerson College, Boston, USA. Shot several horror shorts in the early 1980's. Grew up on a diet of horror films of the 70's and 80's and wrote Zibahkhana as an homage to the films that made an enormous impact on the director. Essentially the film is a love letter to the low-budget horror films of Tobe Hooper, Sam Raimi, George Romero, Lucio Fulci, Sam Raimi etc.

Saad Khan is a New York based filmmaker, archivist, and founder of Khajistan.
