My book on regional horror films is finally available. You can order it on Amazon or over at the publisher's web site:
http://mcfarlandpub.com/book-2.php?id=978-0-7864-7227-7There are more than 350 independent horror/sci-fi films from 1958 to 1990 profiled, made in nearly every state in the Union (excluding California), and 13 interviews with the likes of William Grefe (Stanley), Robert Morgan (Blood Stalkers), J.R. Bookwalter (Dead Next Door), Milton Ginsberg (Werewolf of Washington), Lewis Jackson (Christmas Evil), Martin Folse (Terror in the Swamp), Albert Salzer (Night of Bloody Horror), and Don Barton (Zaat/Bloodwaters of Dr. Z).
There are also rare behind-the-scenes photos from THE DEAD NEXT DOOR, WEREWOLF OF WASHINGTON, BLOODSTALKERS, the previously unknown Mississippi SOV film SOUTHERN SHOCKERS, and a lot of nice VHS box cover scans and newspaper admats.
This is also the first print reference book to include full entries with cast and crew lists for SOUTHERN SHOCKERS, THE DEMON OF DEVIL'S LAKE, THE BEAST FROM THE BEGINNING OF TIME, THE WEDNESDAY CHILDREN, and several other rare, regional films.
I'm also doing a countdown of the Top 100 regional horror films over at my blog:
