**PRAISE FOR HORROR 101**


Bringing a refreshingly egalitarian approach to the subject, Horror 101 collects musings on our favorite chillers not by the expected assortment of critics and filmmakers, but the audience... the fans themselves. Young and old, male and female, located all over the globe.  From Alien through The Wicker Man, each entry brings a breath of fresh air to the consideration of seminal movies many of us thought had been analyzed to death. As editor Aaron Christensen puts it, "Keep America strong! Watch more monster movies!

-- Joe Dante, director, The Howling, Piranha, Gremlins


A master stroke...something absolutely different and essential.  If you find yourself feeling negative about the horror genre, you need to take a look at this book.

--Nick Digilio, News/Talk 720 WGNRadio Chicago


These are not just fanboys that like their gore and monsters; rather they are passionate folks who give great insight to all things horror and the macabre.

--Tiffany Shepis, scream queen, Tromeo & Juliet, The Hazing, Nightmare Man


Horror 101 is a fine collection of criticism, something different.  It is not a book of polished prose and penetrating, detailed analysis. Instead, it is a book of enthusiasm. It reminds us why we love horror movies...

-- Michael W. Mayo, author, VideoHound's Horror Show


Horror 101 is the primer every sci-fi and horror student needs for a compelling and intellectual glimpse into the classroom of genre movies. After digesting this, you will never again get an "F" -- unless it stands for "Film-lover."

-- John Stanley, author, Creature Features and I Was a TV Horror Host


A great read for both veterans and those new to the horror genre…Highly recommended!!

--Aaron Crowell, HorrorHound Magazine


A brilliant collection… Passionate fans like these don't come around too often.  Do you remember [the] fun you had remembering the time you first watched your favorite horror film? These people do.
