"Mank yokes a fan boy's obsessive enthusiasm with meticulous research. And after 35 years of research and ten books, he has navigated many quirky side streets off the horror film main drag...beautiful black-and-white production stills throughout, Mank and McFarland's tag-teamed volume will be a winner in genre film collections"-Library Journal; "With his hyper-dramatic style and flawless research, Mank has become one of the finest classic film writers/historians working today, and he has been raising the bar of film scholarship for decades"-Midnight Marquee; "there is no better writer on the classic Golden era of horror films than Greg Mank. Many great photos. Brilliant, brilliant, book"-Little Shoppe of Horrors; "if you're a fan of early horror films, you're going to love this book...very enlightening"-SFCrowsnest; "superb, and McFarland has done fine job on designing this book. The cover is a spectacular reproduction of the poster for 'Cat People', while the inside is well illustrated with many fine black and white photos"-Destructive Music; "Mank has written another must have book to add to one's collection. Each new book by this cinema historian has been exhaustively researched, bringing astoundingly fresh discoveries and information to the fore about films that are often seventy five years old or older...superior research...a treasure trove of facts that leaves one astonished by what the author is able to uncover. Highly recommended"-Scarlet the Film Magazine; "a Psychobabble top reviewed item...what unites this variety of nightmares is Mank's attention to detail, his often-lyrical writing, and the common issues many of these disparate films faced"-Psychobabble.
