I just got it through the post today and it's HUGE! Cram-packed with everything about the Friday the 13th films (up to the latest one - Freddy Vs. Jason ) - interviews with practically EVERYONE (!) from Sean S. Cunningham to Robert Englund to Corey Feldman to Tom Savini, the list just keeps on going! Stuffed with pictures (ALL coloured) as well!

An amazing book - and I've only actually read the intro so far! :P

Crystal Lake Memories is a fantastic read.I've read through it a few times.It's a hell of a lot more interesting and informative than the His Name Was Jason documentary.Anyone who considers themselves a real fan of the Friday films should own this.

Finished Charlie Brooker's "Dawn of the Dumb" and "Hancock: The definitive biography".

Now reading:
"Stray Dogs and Lone Wolves: The Samurai Film Handbook" by Patrick Galloway.

Has anyone read Godzilla on My Mind: Fifty Years of the King of Monsters?

If not and you are fan of the Japanese reptile this book is highly recommended!

Very true and the FAB Press tome The Legend Of Camp Blood: The Making Of Friday The 13th also remains an essential purchase for fans of all things Jason Voorhees. Brilliant books both of 'em!:thumb:

I can recommend ENGLISH GOTHIC: A century of horror cinema by Alan Rigby. Its a fantastic, comprehensive reference book, very stylishly presented, mainly focusses on 50s-70s but also features pre- and post- films. He's quite opinionated and its rather fun to hear him lay into films he thinks are tripe and laud others. Theres lots of good insight into the production process of the films too :D

Has anyone here read The Filmmaker's Book of the Dead:How to Make Your Own Heart-Racing Horror Movie ? Looks very interesting indeed, especially for those wanting to make horror films...

Just ordered myself A Nightmare On Elm Street: The Dream Dealers! I've never read any of these so I'm really looking forward to it.

You know,for sheer scope on horror films,you can't go wrong with TERROR ON TAPE.:)
