Book Review: A Comprehensive Guide to an Underrated Genre
Summary: 4 Stars
If you were growing up in the seventies as I was, then you no doubt will recall some of these weird but entertaining films. Some of them were forgettable while others stayed with us for a long time forcing us to go to bed with the light on. This book tells you everything you need to know about these wonderful gems. If you have any memory of this golden age of TV film (a decade where theater cinema was pretty much moribund with a few notable exceptions) then treat yourself to a trip to the past when it seemed the supernatural and strange were scary and not the norm.
