The FrightFest Guide to Japanese Horror Movies, the latest book collaboration between FrightFest and FAB Press, is set to launch at this year’s Tubi FrightFest, which takes place between August 27th and 31st.

Written by Japanese cinema expert Tom Mes, the book will be on sale during the event with the author in attendance to sign copies and introduce some classic Japanese horror movies.

The FrightFest Guide to Japanese Horror Movies shines a spotlight on more than 200 films and fright franchises, including horrific hidden gems and monstrous missing links that have never been seen outside Japan or written about in the English language before.

Following the success of the previous seven editions: The FrightFest Guides to Exploitation Movies, Monster Movies, Ghost Movies, Werewolf Movies, Grindhouse Movies, Vampire Movies and Mad Doctor Movies, this is the latest in a series of wide appeal books for both the curious spectator and the cult connoisseur.

The exclusive launch of the book is at Tubi FrightFest 2026, with official author book signings taking place at Odeon LUXE Leicester Square from Friday 28th to Monday August 31st.

The exclusive hardcover will be on sale for just £25, and people not attending in person won’t miss out as they have the option to pre-order the book from www.fabpress.com – pre-ordered books will ship the first week of September. The Paperback publication date is October 27th, 2026.
