3.0 out of 5 stars An Interesting Diagnosis, March 28, 2000

By A Customer

Games of terror:Halloween, Friday the 13th,and the films of the stalker cycle is a fascinating diagnosis of the genre and avid horror movie fans won't be dissapointed. The Friday the 13th section is particularly informative and gives one an idea of how the atmosphere was created. However for casual horror fans this book might prove a little dissapointing. For example the Halloween section only went over old facts and wasn't very good. Vera Dika does write a good description of the rapid rise of the slasher genre and that was the most interesting part of the book. In conclusion all casual fans would be better off buying a DVD of their favorite horror title, for that has interviews and directors commentary which is better. For seasond horror fans add an extra star to this review and buy it!
