The world has two faces. The natural and the supernatural. The faces we see every day. The faces of hose filing past us in an almost zombie-like stupor, numb to the horrors of everyday life or driven to madness by the pain and agony of modern-day existence - and those are the people who aren't zombies or monsters! Cal McDonald is a detective with one foot in the real world, and one in the world of magic.

Insiders. Clever Alec. Arrogant Roman. Beautiful Lindy. The popular kids at school. They don’t know who they hurt. And they don’t care. Outsider. Frazier. Brainy, awkward, unloved. But he’s got something the other kids don’t. Astral projection. The ability to cast his mind long distances out of his body. Yet it fails to save him the night he falls victim to a prank that goes horrifyingly too far. Though Frazier’s body dies, his mind does not. It floats, buoyed for years by one thought. Revenge.

In Milwaukee, a regular at Vic’s Tavern suddenly smashes a beer bottle and carves up the other customers. In Manhattan, an easygoing cabdriver goes berserk and hurls his cab into a crowd of pedestrians. In Seattle, a young bride slashes her husband in a busy restaurant, then flings herself through a plate-glass window. At first, these shocking incidents appear unrelated. Then a disturbing pattern emerges - the agonizing headaches, the violent tantrums, the faces erupting with sickening lesions, then the final, fatal outburst.

On a lonely stretch of highway in the Utah mountains, Cedar Mountain Truck Stop awaits the unsuspecting traveler. Over the years, it has been the setting of unspeakable acts of horror that have gone undiscovered. It is the hunting ground for a serial killer who disposes the bodies in the junkyard behind the rambling, rundown complex.

Much has been written about the storied New Hollywood of the 1970s, but while Martin Scorsese, Steven Spielberg, and Francis Ford Coppola were making their first classic movies, a parallel universe of directors gave birth to the modern horror film - aggressive, raw, and utterly original. Based on unprecedented access to the genre's major players, New York Times critic Jason Zinoman's Shock Value delivers the first definitive account of horror's golden age.

Publisher's Summary
Charles Band's Full Moon Entertainment was the most remarkable B-movie studio of the 1990s, responsible for a barrage of sci-fi, fantasy, and horror classics during the last true "golden age" of the home video era. From Puppetmaster to Trancers and beyond, Full Moon transformed the VHS experience for fans worldwide, bringing the inner workings of the movie-making process into the living room, and in turn creating a ravenous fan base that remains to this day. This book tracks the history of the company, from its late 80s birth among the ruins of the American drive-in through to its bid to survive in the modern digital world. Featuring rare artwork, behind-the-scenes photos, and over 50 exclusive interviews with the cast and crew who helped to create the legendary B-movie studio, this is an essential listen for any cult film fan still lamenting the death of the "mom 'n pop" video store.

Terrific book
This book was absolutely what I needed at this moment in my life. It's an entertaining and thoroughly researched history of Full Moon over the years. If I were to have a complaint, I'd say it makes occasional statements that feel like there was a missing chapter about Charles Band's earlier company Empire International Pictures that the authors are referring back to, but that could be more my reading than anything.
The narration was good overall. He was a good choice a voice for the material. There were a small number of sentences that are emphasized oddly, like he was reading it for the first time and didn't understand the meaning until he'd finished that probably should been re-recorded. I would have ignored that, but he really should have gotten a pronunciation guide on all of the names. I would have accepted he might be right on some I'm not sure of, if he didn't mispronounce a bunch I know for sure, like Klaus Kinski.

For Full Moon fanatics
Inciteful analysis of the production process of many of my favourite Full Moon features. This was great to listen to and covers many things I'd forgotten reading about Full Moon over the years and stuff I didn't know at all. There are things talked about during the book that can be researched after, such as the Video Zone VHS and DVD extras which can be found on Full Moon's YouTube channel. I haven't read a copy of the book, but it's now on my list!
