They are photoshopped visual feasts of kitschy gruesomeness and shine with the visual 'pulp' glory of the proud genre they belong to. For example one, has a kuthuvillaku impaling a hapless woman. Nobody seems to feel that this is an attack on their culture!<br /><br />While it might seem awful and distasteful to some, die-hard pulp fans would just be like 'Oh, a hair-raising story lies within'<br /><br />Pulp is Pulp, and has its own paradigms just like non-pulp literature does.<br /><br />Pulp Defender :):)Pulp Defendernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5413291183164140297.post-58636475847870132402010-03-27T22:48:15.071-07:002010-03-27T22:48:15.071-07:00Gawd!& Gaack!
