Book description
After the wild success of Halloween in 1978 and then 1980s ultra-gory Friday the 13th, there was no denying the box office potential of the low-budget slasher movies. Parents hated them, critics despised them, and teens flocked to them, making the biggest hits from minor productions. It was a perfect time to be a movie fan, as video cassettes entered the market and video stores blossomed on every street corner. Cable television also exploded into households across the country. For the first time, film fans had access to thousands and thousands of titles that were available to them before, and slasher movies were everywhere. You could go to the theater or the drive-in to see them upon their initial release, catch them later on VHS or Betamax, or even wait and watch them on Commander USA's Groovie Movie or Elvira's Movie Macabre. Slasher movies were never more prevalent than in 1981 when dozens of them saw theatrical releases and all of them made money. It Came From Hollywood Book 2 celebrates the slasher era with eight exclusive interviews with the people who made those films and a couple of 21st-century purveyors who keep that spirit alive.
