Thread: Rue Morgue vs. Fangoria

Tweet

Hello everyone! Lookin to update my magazine subscription and am trying to decide between Rue Morgue and Fangoria. Looking to get all yor opinions on which tends to have the best articles and is a better read. I have only been able to get my hands on a single edition of Rue Morgue and definately enjoyed it, but if Fangoria has more to offer I would like to know.
Thank you all for your input!

Although I don't have subscriptions to either (yet) I prefer Rue Morgue's style over Fangoria. Fangoria (IMO) seems to be more popular but that shouldn't be a factor in deciding. This is really something you should decide for yourself. It may be best to just go with both of them. If you don't like one or both you can just cancel your subscription(s).

I myself started to buy both a few months ago, and to be honest, Rue Morgue denies Fangoria easily. I find Rue Morgue articles way better, the quality of it, is amazing, the reviews much more interesting and much easier to read. Fangoria articles are alll crammed, smaller fonts, not much well designed in layouts. Also, the reviews in Fangoria are not much, I remember reading the first one I bought a few months ago, most of all the reviews was about the the video ouput, what kind of camera was used to film the movies, all technical aspect of production.. I was "What the F??? Tell me about the story? "

Still, Fangoria is better than nothing, they do have some good articles too sometimes, but Rue Morgue is way better in my book. (Plus, I meet them in Toronto at FanExpo 2009, and they are reallly cool people!).
