The absolute best toilet tank book you can buy! The reviews are short, sweet, and to the point. Where else can you avoid seeing a stinker by reading while leaving a stinker? Buy this book. You won't be sorry.
A bullet-stopping 648-page volume that deserves a place right next to your computer, tv or wherever you add to your Netflix queue. Harris keeps the capsules short and to the point, with each entry featuring a spoiler-free write-up and simple five-star rating system that will quickly tell you if you should spend your time on PULSE 3: INVASION (*) or LUCKER THE NECROPHAGOUS (****). As the author states in the intro, you'll find everything in these pages from Jess Franco to Cannon Films, but he's also not afraid to endorse a creepy classic that you might have overlooked when you were spending your days watching GATES OF HELL (****) for the 17th time. Best of all, in reading the reviews you get the feeling that Harris is the kind of film fan you'd love to hang out with, shooting the breeze about your favorite trash flicks while downing a few cold drinks and watching AMERICAN NINJA (***). And that, my friends, is about the best endorsement I can give any film book!
This book is useful for two things: 1) getting the honest, informed (and often entertaining) scoop on the genre flicks you love (and perhaps want to love but are afraid to rent or buy), and 2) beating a large man to death. It is HUGE. Once you've got filmBRAWL, you don't really need any other film guide.
Really a great book. All the reviews are written with Brian's trademark sense of humour and deep love and knowledge of exploitation/horror cinema. You will find reviews of your favourites flicks alongside movies that you might not have heard of plus some interesting interviews with horror/exploitation's great and good. I really cannot recommend this book highly enough! x
