"It's all here. Universal, RKO, Boris Karloff, Vincent Price, Peter Cushing, Christopher Lee, Hammer, Roger Corman, George Romero, Dario Argento, Wes Craven and beyond. And there's more." "Howard Maxford has assembled a treasure trove of detailed and previously unpublished information on horror film- makers from Britain, America, Spain, Germany, Japan, South America, South-East Asia - every part of the world where the genre has flourished." "The A-Z includes entries on actors, directors, screenwriters and studios, plus information on the great movie monsters and the novels and stories that have shaped the genre. There are entries on all the classic films, as well as countless trashy titles no one in their right mind would dream of renting from the video store." "Twenty-five featured colour spreads are interspersed through the text, providing further information on key topics from Amicus to Zombies."--BOOK JACKET. 530 Also issued online. 650 0 Horror films|vDictionaries. 946 PFA PN1995.9.H6M3245 1997.
