¡BIENVENIDOS!WELCOME TO BOOKBLIPS!

BOOK NUMBER 28
SUBJECT MATTER: Horror Films, Television
TITLE: The Lurker in the Lobby
AUTHORS: Andrew Migliore, John Strysik
PUBLISHER: Armitage House
COPYRIGHT: 2000, 198 pages

A really fun book for fans of H.P.Lovecraft and horror tales presented in cinema form. This book gives good descriptions of movies based on Mr. Lovecrafts works (some more true to the tale than others) including "In The Mouth of Madness" "Re-Animator" and "The Dunwich Horror", and talks about the good, bad, and ugly of these works.
The book includes lots of black and white photos from the films, interviews with directors like Roger Corman and John Carpenter. Also contains an interview with the actor Jeffrey Combs ("Re-Animator", "Castle Freak", etc.) and composer Richard Band.
A must read for horror fans.
