Хоррор, мистика и саспенс Данная рубрика представляет собой «уголок страшного» на сайте FantLab. В первую очередь рубрика ориентируется на соответствующие книги и фильмы, но в поле ее зрения будет попадать все мрачное искусство: живопись, комиксы, игры, музыка и т.д.
Здесь планируются анонсы жанровых новинок, рецензии на мировые бестселлеры и произведения, которые известны лишь в узких кругах любителей ужасов. Вы сможете найти информацию об интересных проектах, конкурсах, новых именах и незаслуженно забытых авторах.
Приглашаем к сотрудничеству:
— писателей, работающих в данных направлениях;
— издательства, выпускающие соответствующие книги и журналы;
— рецензентов и авторов статей и материалов для нашей рубрики.
Обратите внимание на облако тегов: используйте выборку по соответствующему тегу.

Аннотация: Ни для кого не было секретом, что журналист Джек Спаркс занимался исследованием оккультизма для своей новой книги. Не прочь поспорить, он уже вызвал бурю негодования в Твиттере, комментируя процесс изгнания нечистой силы, свидетелем которого он стал. А потом появилось видео: 40 секунд страшных видеокадров, которые неоднократно требовал Джек в качестве доказательства, были выложены в Сеть с его страницы. С тех пор никто не знает, что произошло с Джеком.

Серия: Тёмные фантазии Джеральда Брома
Аннотация: «Санта-Клаус, мой дорогой друг, ты — вор, предатель, лжец, убийца, обманщик, но хуже всего — насмехаешься над тем, что мне так дорого. Можешь прогорланить своё последнее «хо-хо-хо», потому что я иду за твоей головой. Я иду забрать то, что принадлежит мне по праву, забрать Йоль... »
Однажды в сочельник, в маленькой деревушке Бун, что в западной Вирджинии, неудачливый поэт песенник по имени Джесс стал свидетелем странного представления: семь облаченных в черные плащи бандитов напали на человека в красном костюме и с санями. Когда Джесс бросился на помощь загадочные фигуры исчезли, оставив большой мешок — магический мешок, благодаря которому горе-поэт станет удачлив и погрузится в захватывающие дух приключения. Мешок, как оказалось, является собственностью Крампуса, древнего демона-обманщика, наказывающего плохих. Он станет новым хозяином для Джесса и расскажет о человеке в красном вещи, которые тот раньше не знал. Например о том, как пол-тысячелетия назад краснощекий веселый старикан-святой, заточил Крампуса в тюрьму и прибрал к рукам всю его магию. Но время Санта-Клауса подходит к концу и бывший лорд Йоля решает уничтожить своего врага и вернуть свой праздник. Теперь у Джесса есть шанс спасти дочь и собственные разбитые мечты.. и вернуть необузданную дикую магию бедным жителям деревушки Бун.

Серия: Сверхъестественное. Книги по культовому сериалу
Аннотация: В городке Мишнс-Ридж, Джорджия, собираются исторические реконструкторы, чтобы отыграть крупную битву. Однако дело принимает очень скверный оборот: макеты оружия внезапно оказываются смертельно опасными, а тихий фанат прошлого — хладнокровным убийцей. Все ниточки тянутся к капитану Конфедерации Джубалу Бошаму и реликвии, называемой Петля Иуды, которая к концу Войны между штатами стала частью темного заклятия. То, что вначале виделось несерьезными разборками демонов, оказалось крупной игрой на несколько партий, пешками в которой стали судьбы Дина и Сэма.

Ее директору Пейнтеру Кроу становится известно, что некоторое время назад Аманда забеременела в результате искусственного оплодотворения, а совсем недавно получила анонимное предостережение об опасности, угрожающей ей и ее плоду. Но чего хочет «Гильдия»? И, в то время как бойцы «Сигмы» во главе с Греем Пирсом ищут пропавшую, Кроу собирает информацию, связанную с беременностью Аманды. Похитителям явно нужен именно ее неродившийся ребенок. Ибо в нем сокрыта одна из самых важных тайн человечества, обладающий которой способен сравняться с самим Богом…

После новогодней ночи Роза поняла, что в доме творится нечто странное и страшное… Его обитатели совсем перестали спать, обнаружили, что в поселке, кроме них, никого не осталось, а полнолуние необъяснимо затянулось. Все их попытки выбраться в город провалились, а за окнами каждую ночь стала появляться фигура в черном капюшоне…

Обратив мощь злостных железяк на свою сторону, свеженький DARKER вырвался из пучины технологического ужаса. И приветствуя своей цифровой лапищей, предлагает прочитать:
— рассказы Саймона Кларка и Грэма Мастертона;
— рецензии на авторские сборники Олега Кожина и Дмитрия Тихонова, фильмы «Реинкарнация» и «Сага о чудовище. Сумерки»;
— обзоры темы лифтов в кино и страха ядерного огня;
— топы литературных произведений на тему технохоррора и психованных снайперов из темного кино;
— статьи о страхе перед машинами в музыке и экологической катастрофе в перуанском городке Серро-де-Паско;
— критика книг Стивена Кинга и Адама Нэвилла, свежих альбомов групп Kamelot и Angra, игры Lobotomy Corporation…
С ликом Терминатора на флаге, под звуки ужасающего техно DARKER не то чтобы резко врывается, но методично размеренной, медленной походкой робота шествует на территорию Лаборатории фантастики . Технокошмары наконец дождались своего часа, а посему материалы свежего выпуска журнала — в полной готовности к вашим оценкам и отзывам.
DARKER. № 6 ИЮНЬ 2018
ПОЛНОЕ СОДЕРЖАНИЕ:
СЛОВО РЕДАКТОРА Электрическое тело боюсь
Технологии всегда воспринимались неоднозначно. С одной стороны, без них мы до сих пор бы собирали корешки и запивали их водой из ручья, а с другой – всегда есть опасность, что то, что помогает сегодня, может уничтожить нас завтра. Атомные электростанции подают электричество, но мало кому удалось пережить два атомных взрыва подряд.
ЛИКИ ТЬМЫ

Гнев атомных богов
Искусство, и в частности литература, знает немало примеров, в которых научно-фантастический элемент сочетается с фэнтезийным, когда имеющий явную научную природу вымышленный элемент для героев произведения облекается в магическо-волшебную форму. Одной из самых перспективных в этом плане для хоррора тем выглядит ядерный огонь. О страхе ядерного огня рассказал Вячеслав Бабышев.
ТЬМА НАД МИРОМ
Эксклюзивные статьи
О жизни и смерти нищих и богатых
В далеком Перу на высоте 4380 метров ютится беспорядочно застроенный городишко Серро-де-Паско. Основанный как шахтерское поселение, за годы своего существования он превратился в настоящую экологическую катастрофу. Дмитрий Могилевцев представил наглядную иллюстрацию того, как технологии людей сеют настоящий ужас на лице Земли..

Сергей Левин: «Хоррор не яд, а лекарство!»
DARKER, как известно, находится в непрерывном поиске свежего хоррора, чтобы периодически знакомить вас с авторами не только из дальнего и ближнего зарубежья и не только из столиц, но и из разных уголков необъятной родины русского хоррора. Сегодня к нам на допрос попал анапский автор Сергей Левин, по совместительству являющийся составителем антологии «Послесказие», в 2016 году удостоенной фантастической премии #МАРСНАШ. С писателем беседовала Дарья Тоцкая.

Вкалывают роботы… прямо в человека
Произведений, описывающих – или хотя бы упоминающих – ту или иную техногенную катастрофу или, на худой конец, опасность, тысячи. Конечно, сейчас многие из текстов, созданных уже даже и не в XIX веке, выглядят наивными. Чуть глуповатыми. И нередко весьма идиотскими. Однако именно они заложили основы современного технохоррора. Поэтому если какие-то из произведений в нашем топе вас не испугают… вы просто родились слишком поздно.
Пару слов в защиту ядерного апокалипсиса
В истории человечества можно найти немало безумных и ввергающих в шок идей. Но особняком стоит то, что принято называть не иначе как «философский пессимизм». В корне этой концепции лежит очень простая и логичная, но тем не менее крайне непопулярная среди простых обывателей идея: «Жизнь есть то, чего не должно бы быть, — зло, и переход в ничто есть единственное благо жизни». Разные мыслители предлагали по-разному решить эту проблему, но особняком среди них стоит немецкий философ Эдуард фон Гартман.
Проза
Грэм Мастертон «Сексуальный объект»
Что делать, если твой муж — богатейший человек в штате — устал от тебя в постели? Как не оказаться на улице, учитывая, что ты, уже пятая его жена? Кажется, самое время обратиться к пластическому хирургу… DARKER эксклюзивно представляет рассказ мастера эротического хоррора. Публикуется с его любезного разрешения.
Саймон Кларк «Байки могильщика»
Старый могильщик за свою жизнь повидал немало малоприятных вещей. И, вызвав на кладбище молодого электрика, находит для собеседника целую россыпь жутких историй. Но самая ужасающая из них — та, что случилась совсем недавно, когда пришлось раскопать могилу некой Роуз Бёрсвик. Рассказ трехкратного обладателя Британской премии фэнтези публикуется на русском впервые!
Виктор Колюжняк «Вагон-завод»
Российская Империя. Предреволюционные годы. Яков Карабин получает задание сопроводить иностранца Джонса и помочь ему в поисках таинственного вагона-завода. Их путешествие начинается в Санкт-Петербурге и продолжается вглубь страны, постепенно проливая свет на страшную тайну, которую скрывает Джонс.
Александр Дедов и Стефан Димитриевич «Несвет»
Натаниель Ким — инспектор по обслуживанию инновационных энергетических систем. Он, как и миллионы работников I.U.H.T, является собственностью корпорации. После запуска новой сверхмощной энергетической установки, работающей на «несвете», прирученных кварках антивещества, лунный завод по переработке реголита перестает выходить на связь. Ким отправляется на внеочередную проверку и обнаруживает нечто, выходящее за рамки мироустройства. «Несвет» не хотел, чтобы его тревожили.
Иван Русских «То, что мы ценим»
Майора вермахта Шульца перевели в Польшу с Восточного фронта. Почти сразу он получает приказ расстрелять жителей деревушки, расположенной неподалеку от засекреченного объекта рейха. Приказ привозит не кто-нибудь, а группенфюрер СС. Шульц подозревает, что перевод в тыл не случаен…
Алиса Юридан «Демоверсия»
«Совершенно новая игра, переворачивающая ваши представления о реальности!» Сообщение с таким текстом получил Герман от своей (бывшей?) девушки Альбины. Будучи уверенным, что ничего тупее текстовых квестов — тем более хоррор-квестов — не существует, он все-таки решает начать демо-игру.
Осип Сенковский «Антар»
Антар оставил людей навсегда. Он проливал за них свою кровь, жертвовал имуществом, расточал для них свою любовь и дружбу: они ему изменили!.. Но однажды погоня за газелью круто изменила судьбу аравитянина. DARKER знакомит вас с арабской сказкой русского писателя-востоковеда XIX века.

Гибрид Стивена Кинга
В 1997 году, преодолев значимый рубеж в 50 лет, Стивен Кинг отложил остросюжетную беллетристку, чтобы создать необычное произведение — «Как писать книги». В гибриде автобиографии и мастер-класса выделяются две основные темы: любовь к творчеству и к матери.
Le fantôme romantique, le vampire fantastique
Книга Танит Ли «Убить мертвых», вписавшаяся в рамки серии «Темный город-2», скрывает под обложкой сразу два романа. Каждое из произведений обращается к одному из классических представителей хоррорной нечисти. В романе «Убить мертвых» действует привидение, обитающее в старом доме. Главная героиня второго романа «Сабелла, или Кровавый камень» охотится по ночам: она — вампир.
«Я люблю запах автострады поутру»
Безликий и шаблонный американский городишко. Тихий омут под угрюмым куполом пепельного неба. Главный герой, рутинную жизнь которого омрачает строительство автострады, что превращает его унылый и сомнительно комфортный «рай» во всамделишный ад... Максим Деккер о «Дорожных работах» Стивена Кинга.

Одиннадцать мгновений ужаса
Британец Адам Нэвилл в совершенстве владеет крупной формой. Творчество писателя ставят в один ряд с произведениями таких корифеев жанра, как Рэмси Кэмпбелл, Клайв Баркер и Стивен Кинг. А что насчет рассказов? Ситуации, в которых оказываются нэвилловские герои, заставляют испытать дискомфорт… Илья Пивоваров говорит об авторском сборнике «Что-то не заснет».

Lift me up, lift me up: страшные лифты в кино
Лифты – это настоящий кошмар для страдающих клаустрофобией. Но ужас может нагнетать не только сам факт «добровольного заточения», но и те случайные попутчики, с которыми его предстоит пережить. Да и случайны ли встречи с этими людьми? Давайте вспомним, какие жуткие истории про эти древние грузоподъемные машины может рассказать нам темный кинематограф.
По живым мишеням
Разве это не весело? Увидеть чье-то безмятежное лицо в перекрестии прицела, наслаждаться каждым мгновением, медленно сдавливая спусковой крючок или отпуская тетиву лука, понаблюдать за жизнью обреченного бедолаги – и оборвать ее? Вышибить мозги метким выстрелом, передернуть затвор – и отправить на тот свет следующего кандидата на инъекцию свинцом? Султанбек Аббасов представляет на суд читателя топ-6 психованных снайперов из темного кино.
Новое лицо чудовища
Вот уже более 100 лет история о Викторе Франкенштейне и сотворенном им чудовище служит источником вдохновения для создания кинокартин, и в наше время интерес к данному сюжету не иссякает. Оригинальные образы Мэри Шелли, воплощенные на экранах, претерпевали множество трансформаций, и экранизация Теренса Фишера «Проклятие Франкенштейна» (1957) кажется нам одной из наиболее значительных в плане смены точки зрения на образ барона Франкенштейна.

Через три дня созвонимся
Раньше многие дети развлекались, звоня в свои пустые квартиры из телефонов-автоматов. Это было жутковато, но интересно: а что, если кто-то снимет трубку в пустом помещении? Потом они звонили сами себе на мобильные, звонили умершим родственникам, звонили, звонили, звонили… Но эти звонки всегда оставались без ответа. Но что, если когда-нибудь трубка мобильного оживет, и, ответив, человек услышит свой собственный предсмертный крик? Именно об этом и рассказывает картина «Один пропущенный звонок».
До чего техника дошла…
Конфликт создателя со своим творением поистине неисчерпаем. Его вариации легко находятся в древнегреческой мифологии, в Библии, в классической литературе, в фантастике, в кинематографе – словом, практически везде, включая повседневную жизнь. В основе «Потомства демона» лежит как раз очередная такая вариация. Подробности – в обзоре от Ильи Бессонова.
Один дома – R Rated
«Кристина» вряд ли попадет на первые места в различных топах экранизаций Кинга. Однако для не читавших оригинал это отличный фильм ужасов из 80-х, ладно и красиво снятый, с отличными спецэффектами (которые не кажутся устаревшими, даже 35 лет спустя) и простеньким философским подтекстом об одержимости американцев своим автопромом (или, если быть проще, о вреде безоглядной любви). Подробности – в обзоре от Игоря Евдокимова.
Досадная мелочь
В июле исполняется 60 лет со дня премьеры «Мухи» Курта Нойманна. Неплохая причина пересмотреть или открыть для себя фильм, который Стивен Кинг внес в список 100 наиболее значительных картин жанра ужасов с 1950 по 1980 годы. Пока же читаем рецензию от Ирины Беловой и делаем выводы, до чего может довести увлечение телепортацией. В жизни ученого Андре Деламбре и его семьи оно стало роковым.

Хроники зомби-обывателей
Для тех, кому в жизни не хватает дозы отборного черного юморка с гламурной приправой семейных ценностей, на экраны вышел второй сезон зажигательного сериала «Диета из Санта-Клариты». Семейство Хаммонд с завидным оптимизмом адаптируется к жизни с мамой-зомби. Но теперь, помимо поисков пропитания из человечины, им приходится иметь дело с конкурентами, как среди зомби, так и на ниве риелторства. Обзор второго сезона подготовила Елена Труш.

Алексей Шерстобитов: «Отдаю предпочтение психологическому хоррору»
Алексей Шерстобитов, когда-то слушавший Modern Talking и Bad Boys Blue, после первого же столкновения с тяжелым металом переключился на экстремальную музыку – и с тех пор успел поиграть и дэт, и блэк, и их симфо-разновидности. А еще он не чужд хоррору: любит «Пункт назначения», игры серии «Обитель зла». О его карьере и отношении к музыке в целом DARKER расспросил музыканта в эксклюзивном интервью.

Музыка машин: между романтикой и ужасом
Отношения к машинам (в широком смысле слова) в человеческом обществе всегда было полярным: то, как в XIX веке, их считали способными разрешить любую проблему, то наоборот – видели источник угрозы. В музыке этот конфликт тоже находил свое отражение: от меланхоличных романтиков Kraftwerk с их фирменным «Я твой слуга, я твой работник» до яростных криков Die Krupps: «Почему вы действуете, как машины?». Как бы то ни было, источник вдохновения из них получился почти неиссякаемый.

Ежемесячный горн: июнь 2018
В июне жарко и на отечественном рынке комиксов, поэтому в первом летнем «Горне» рассказывать будем о новинках, выпущённых на русском языке, о паре интересных новинок на английском напишем только чтобы соблюсти приличия. А в этом выпуске вас ожидает ещё одна встреча с Джиперсом Криперсом, возвращение «крещёных», деревья-пришельцы, японские школьники-убийцы, Шерлок Франкенштейн, Отряд Самоубийц в России, Армагеддон с супергероями и не только…
Технологии смерти в манге
Тема июньского DARKER – «Технохоррор». А в какой стране делают лучшую электронику? В Японии! А ещё в Стране восходящего солнца делают отличные комиксы. И поэтому одну из статей нашей рубрики об историях в картинках, мы посвятим мрачной манге, в сюжете которой играют важную роль высокие технологии. Её в нашей подборке будет четыре. Почему всего четыре? Потому что в Японии эти плохое число, которое звучит почти одинаково со словом «смерть»…

Скрежет металла
Лязг полированной стали, запах вязкого машинного масла, блик огонька визора, тепло капающей крови. Несмотря на то, что на базе трех законов робототехники Азимова разработан уже свод правил, исключающий причинение роботом вреда человеку, эти механизированные создания до сих пор являются заядлыми гостями во снах технофобов. И на то есть причины! Далеко не все «железяки» создаются в мирных целях. О самых жутких роботах-убийцах рассказал Султанбек Аббасов в своем топе.
Настольный киберпанк-хоррор
Восток — мир контрастов. Прогрессивные взгляды тут соседствуют с укоренившимися традициями, роскошь с аскетизмом, а яркие праздники нередко имеют весьма мрачную подоплеку. Вот и настольная ролевая игра «Kuro», которую испытал на себе Иван Девятко, смогла совместить в себе высокие технологии и традиционный японский фольклор, чтобы пощекотать нервишки всем без исключения.
Виртуальный ад
Skynet, Red Queen, SHODAN, H.A.L. 9000 — наверняка все эти имена находят отклик в умах любителей киберпанка и научной фантастики. Каждый из них — это рукотворный искусственный интеллект, который пришел к выводу, что мир будет лучше без человека. Но, пожалуй, один из самых страшных представителей сумасшедших ИИ — АМ. Компьютерный безумец, который оставил в живых лишь 5 человек. Но их судьба оказалась куда страшнее смерти. Подробнее расскажет Дмитрий Казин в ретрообзоре на культовую игру «I Have No Mouth, and I Must Scream».
