Biography
Person.
Adrian Luther-Smith is a film writer and editor associated with specialist reference publishing on Italian exploitation cinema. His editorial work includes the Delirium guides, which assemble film reviews, cast and crew credits, alternative titles and release information across horror, thrillers and other genre cycles.
He also wrote Blood and Black Lace, a reference book devoted to Italian giallo cinema. These publications form part of the small-press research culture through which international cult films were catalogued and discussed by English-speaking readers before online film databases became widely available.
