This is the book that made Ed Wood famous. It's an insightful look at some of Hollywood's most amusing groaners. I was particularly impressed by the author's selection of the worst career actors - folks such as Richard Burton and Tony Curtis - my reaction was surprise at first, followed by admiration for the author's perception. A 21st century update would be great (Battlefield Earth & Travolta really need to be recognized) but I doubt if the modern stuff can beat out the 1950's classics. This book will have you heading to the video store to review some of Holywood's great clunkers.

A wonderful book for a Sci-Fi Cult movie obsessed person like myself. Strange and wonderful B movies - read all about them! It's a must - the TV series was a triumph - and so is this book!

Oh God, Make This Book Stop!

This object is like the bain of my existence. Anybody foolish enough to own one, be warned. It's like a gateway to some of the most irrepressibly depressing cinematic downturns imaginable.
What little can be learned about some of these films; Robot Monster, most unsuccessful movie ever, the director tried jumping out of a helicopter avoiding the shame of it, unsuccessfully, he survived.
Plan 9 from Outer Space; sadly, wasn't muzzled by army brass.
They Saved Hitler's Brain; in two parts, but the second half wasn't nearly as bad.
& Night of the Lepus; one part blood, the other part rabbits.
You be the judge. I'd rather sit through Night of the Grizzly again than read this book. It's like a tumor in my book collection. Do yourselves a favor and avoid it -- it just might save your life.

Love it. We have Son of Golden Turkey Awards, which is probably even better.
