Amazon.com
A well-written, useful guide to horror on videotape through 1994. It covers a lot of films, yet is small enough to carry to the video store. Each title is listed with plot summary, fun-to-read review, date, distributor, MPAA rating (where applicable), running time, director, cast, and a half-to-four-star rating. Includes mainstream, cult, foreign (but not Asian), and exploitation titles. Has 100 sidebar essays on important actors and directors, and plenty of black-and-white illustrations. For a surprisingly high percentage of the films, this reviewer agreed with the author's even-handed assessments.
