Wolf Posted July 4, 2010 Report Share Posted July 4, 2010 Re: Steampunk - Source Material This is some websites from a old friend of mine: http://www.johnnypayphone.net/blog.php http://www.steampunkmagazine.com/ - Okay, I don't know if this is his, but he's one of the contributing authors http://www.johnnypayphone.net/ He's a trained apprenticed Steam engine mechanic... it's pretty wild. He feels he lives the steampunk life, whatever that is... he built his own steam powered sewing machine and makes his own clothing with it.

Southern Cross Posted September 27, 2010 Report Share Posted September 27, 2010 Re: Steampunk - Source Material Actually,the best adaptation of Stoker's work I've seen is not the Coppola abomination, but the BBC mini-series starring Louis Jordan, which is now available on DVD. (Yes,I have a copy). Another candidate for a steampunk movie is The Werewolf Of London. The title character becomes a werewolf because he goes into a valley in search of a rare night-blooming flower in order to test his artificial moonlight device. Werewolfery (to use a Dr. Yogami term) is portrayed as a very nasty infection. And did anyone mention R.L.Stevenson's The Strange Case of Dr. Jeckyll and Mr. Hyde? If anything, that is a definitive fit to the Steampunk genre,that would be it (as well as most of the movie adaptations). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
