Features

26 The Kubrick Conspiracies (cover story)
Cinema and conspiracy theory are no strangers, but it is unusual for such theorising to attach itself to the figure of a director - so why has Stanley Kubrick become the focus of theories involving everything from fake Moon landings to the Illuminati? DEAN BALLINGER argues that the answer can be found in the director's obsession with creative control.

36 Unlocking the Cage
SOPHIA KINGSHILL asks whether the figure of the fish-tailed siren can be rescued from the traditional roles of victim or vamp to claim a more nuanced, and sometimes political, role in the modern world.

48 The Great Alien Bake-Off
Bread is a foodstuff rich in human history and symbolism, but it has also played a surprising role in all kinds of entity encounters over the centuries. JOSHUA CUTCHIN opens his otherworldly oven and shares a selection of fairy loaves, alien pancakes and Sasquatch crackers.
