Insightful and informative
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
This book contains a real mix of material, the best of which is fascinating and the worst of which is typical fan writing. For me, the article on "Evil Dead" was the most insightful and really made me think differently about the relationship between horror and humour. I would recommend this book to anybody with an educated interest in the subject.
Great topics: Evil Dead, H.P. Lovecraft & Barbara Steele
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 26 years ago
This book contain essays and reviews of various horror topics. Three of my favorites were on Barbara Steele, The Evil Dead and movie adaptions of H.P. Lovecraft stories. The movies of Barbara Steele are cult classics and hard to obtain. Black Sunday and others are discussed in this Journal. With the recent reissue of the Evil Dead on video, the article discussing this movies is a timely one. I agree with the article on the movies made of H.P. Lovecraft's stories-none have done justice to his writing. One of the better movies however, is video Necromonmicon which is a collection of several of Lovecraft's stories. In this journal I was also introduced to the films of Jean Rollin and others. All in all, it was good to read about my favorites and learn more about similar material out there.
