Son of Guilty Pleasures of the Horror Film
$25.00
In this volume of cinematic guilty pleasures, our writers eloquently explain why some movies—which the majority of viewers consider subpar—are to them such enjoyable movie experiences. These movies are not extraordinary in any way, and they all contain fundamental flaws in craft, yet as filtered through the psyches of the writers, these filmic guilty pleasures ultimately become something very special. And thus the reason this book exists... to demonstrate that the pleasures movies give far outweigh any guilt factor involved in selections such as The She Creature, Robot Monster, Omega Man, Frankenstein’s Daughter, Giant Gila Monster, Private Parts, Horror Island, Frankenstein Conquers the World, Strange Door, Juggernaut and other curious choices.
