Mad Movies is a French magazine created in 1972 by Jean-Pierre Putters, dedicated to fantastic and science-fiction cinema. Mad Movies started as a fanzine and put out 21 issues between 1972 and 1981. In 1979, Putters opened Movies 2000, a film bookstore that became a hotspot for Paris' horror fandom and fanzine trading community. From number 22 (February 1982), Mad Movies became a quarterly newsstand publication. That first widely distributed issue featured a cover story about Italian director Lucio Fulci, which coined the term "Poet of the Macabre" (French: Poête du macabre), an Edgar Allan Poe-inspired nickname that has become one of the director's signatures.
