Item description from seller

95 S.; viele Illustr. (auch farbig); 30 cm; fadengeh., illustr. Orig.-Pappband m. illustr. OUmschl. Gutes Exemplar; Umschl. stw. minimal bereben. - Englisch. - Nigel Andrews, the distinguished film critic of the London Financial Times, reveals exactly what people have been screaming at since The Golem hit the cinema screen right back at the beginning of the century and why. - King Kong, Nosferatu, the Hammer horror films, Psycho, atomic monsters, demons, aliens, Satan, creepies in the attic, monsters at the bottom of the sea and video nasties are all packed into this 96-page blockbuster which entertainingly looks at the language and mythology of the horror film, including. - The two great archetypes, Frankenstein (the always out-of-control ogre) and his terrible opposite Dracula, who specializes in slow, deceitful death. - The Beast From 20,000 Fathoms, a - prehistoric lizard as big as a department store which has a go at dismantling high-rise blocks in New York. - The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, in which a group of innocent teenagers end up on meat hooks, on the receiving end of Grandad's hammer or, worse still, chased by the proud owner of a loudly-buzzing chainsaw. - Night of the Living Dead, when risen corpses decide to hold a convention in a small American town. - The Company of Wolves, which suggests that despite the 1980's taste for video gore, the traditional imagery of horror is as potent as ever. - Front jacket Main picture: Nosferatu (Alan McKenzie). Insets left to right: An American Werewolfin London (Kobal Collection); Twilight Zone: The Movie (Kobal Collection); Swamp Thing (Alan McKenzie). Back jacket Ghost Story (Alan McKenzie). .
