Review Quotes:
"Ambitious in its scope, with serious things to say about who we are... Even more impressive than the wide range and scope of titles is how well organized they are into a taxonomy that makes sense and is richly detailed... a book full of history, organized by a true master of detail who cares deeply about the subject... 'Horror and the Horror Film' provides an important map to guide us through the darkness and bring illumination to the unknown." -moviemorlocks.com
