Horror in the Movies,
By A Customer
This review is from: Horror in the Movies (Paperback)
I liked this book mainly because it gives a lot of information on early horror films, such as Nosferatu and The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari. Since it was written in 1986, it isn't very modern, but I personally don't like modern horror movies. It does however talk about films like Friday the 13th, A Nightmare on Elm Street, and Halloween, which are sort of modern.

Review of Daniel Cohen's 'Horror In the Movies',
By Don Ray (AZ) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Horror in the Movies (Library Binding)
I am proud to review Daniel Cohen's 'Horror In the Movies'.This unique book, found in the children's section at libraries all around the world, portrays the horror genre in films with a different darkness. Some of the movies featured in this exciting book are The Excorcist, The Omen, and Carrie. It also contains some classics like The Cabinet of Dr. Calagari, and several other silent films. Daniel Cohen has a way of detailing the fine art of horror in the movies with his upfront approach to writing. You won't see any pictures of corny monsters like in other books. This head on approach to confronting the horror in film, which everyone has enjoyed at one time, opens a new door to the reality of how horror classics like Rosemary's Baby and Dawn of the Dead have spawned other cult classics dealing with the paranormal world of ghosts, demons, and witchcraft. I highly recommend Horror in the Movies to anyone with an interest in the Macob!
