Imaginative Creepiness!,
By Curtis "I can see forever!" (Los Angeles, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Forrest J Ackerman's The Anthology of the Living Dead (Paperback)
Forrest J Ackerman's Anthology of the Living Dead is an exquisite, rotten confection for horror fans everywhere! Genre heavyweights and newcomers alike unite to deliver some of the most innovative spins on Zombie-lore you could ever imagine. You'll have your favorites, but there's no disputing that wading through ALL of the stories is quite rewarding if you put a premium on imaginative creepiness! With Forry Ackerman's endorsement, it's gotta be good. Double-bolt the front door, board up all the windows and make sure to sleep with a tire iron under your pillow. Yeah, right! As if you'll be able to sleep...

A Few of Forry's Final Favorites,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Forrest J Ackerman's The Anthology of the Living Dead (Paperback)
The Anthology of the Living Dead offers the discerning consumer of zombie fiction two unique flavors served up by no other collection. First, as stated above the title, this is the brainchild of none other than the late, great Forrest J Ackerman, who, short of actually returning from the beyond has done us the final favor of at least leaving us with a presentation of choice cuts from fifteen staggeringly-good writers, each of whom attacks the genre from a different direction...some taking fresh bites and others chewing over the familiar remains of classic zombie tales. All are tasty though few are tasteful. The second notable inclusion in the Anthology is a story by Uncle Forry's favorite fanboy and number-one protégé, Joe Moe, whose "A Hiccup. A Remedy" is such an incredibly inventive short story that I will not even attempt to find a bad zombie pun to describe it...all I can do is recommend that you start reading the book on page 143, because there's always that chance that you'll die before getting to it, and as zombies aren't known to be avid readers, you'd be doing your own undead self a disservice in the delay.
