Synopsis

An irreverent mystery-driven black comedy inspired by strange events that plagued the filming of "The Exorcist" ...

Frannie Rosen's psychic mentions a brilliant future, but she never tells the straight-laced and naive Frannie that she will be possessed by a promiscuous doppelganger. All Frannie wants is an Oscar-winning role. What she gets is far more than that, especially when she's cast in a horror film about demonic possession, directed by the legendary Victor Madison. Victor Madison is universally and deservedly hated. His murder surprises no one but Frannie; his murderer is a surprise to everyone BUT Frannie.

(The author's sister doubled for Linda Blair in "The Exorcist.")

Reviews

Ambitious Hollywood ingenue Frannie Rosen lands a part in a horror movie directed by the celebrated (and reviled) Victor Madison, but gets more than she bargained for in the demonic possession department when a violent and slutty real-life doppelganger takes over her body. The over-the-top, irreverent serving of horror and Hollywood noir in Fifty Cents for Your Soul is something of a departure for Dietz (Footprints in the Butter, etc.), but who can resist a book that opens with "The woman who straddled Victor Madison had hiccups"?
