4.0 out of 5 stars Interesting subject, but with some lack in quality., October 21, 2000
This review is from: The Sleaze Merchants: Adventures in Exploitation Filmmaking (Paperback)
If I would rate this book on just the subject matter alone then it should get five stars. With chapters about Ed Wood, Jess Franco, Andy Milligan, H.G. Lewis, John Waters and Ted V. Mikels to name a few, this could be a winner. But the quality of the essays are in some cases rather bad. The Ed Wood chapter is just a shortened version of Rudolph Grey's superb book 'Nightmare of Ecstacy', including quotes from interviews from 'Nightmare...'. The chapters about Franco and Milligan for example is just reviews of some films the author has seen. But some chapters have interviews like the ones about H.G. Lewis and David F. Friedman for example. The quality is a bit changing, caused by that the chapters was written by different writers. But cause of the subject matter I give this book 4 (weak) stars anyway.
