EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THE GREAT MONSTERS OF THE GOLDEN AGE OF HORROR FILMS!
"Glut traces the expected monsters through their various manifestations, on the screen and elsewhere. His style and approach are spirited and the essays make lively reading. Recommended.” (Choice)
A critical and historical look at the books, movies and other media of the nine classic movie monsters—the Wolf Man, Doctor Jekyll & Mr. Hyde, the Invisible Man, the Mummy, Quasimodo, the Phantom of the Opera, the Creature, King Kong and Godzilla. (You won't, however, see Frankenstein and Dracula, because the author devoted a whole book to each of them...both of which you'll find here!)
