Schlock horror director Landis Woodley lives in a decaying mansion in the Hollywood Hills. When he abandoned the movie business-after being reduced to filming skin flicks and peep shows-he also left a laundry list of enemies, including the IRS. But avid fan Clint Stockbern is determined to write a piece on the alcoholic recluse for Monster magazine. Woodley agrees to the interview-for $600 in cash. As the tape recorder starts rolling, Stockbern travels back in time with Woodley. He hears recollections of Attack of the Haunted Saucer, the worst movie of all time, and Blood Ghouls of Malibu. But he really wants to know about Woodley's masterpiece, Cadaver. Shot on location in the Los Angeles County morgue, the film was rumored to have used real corpses and everyone associated with the production has been fatally haunted since its 1957 release. But the truth is far more terrifying than Stockbern imagined. Is a dead Satanist, possessed by the devil, reaching out beyond the grave? Or is the reporter the final victim in a diabolical scheme dreamed up by mortals? Horror Show is a wild and wacky romp that sends up mid-century Hollywood horror movies and schlockmeisters Roger Corman, William Castle, and Ed Wood.… (altro)

Definitely a better book than [b:Shade of Pale|818607|Shade of Pale|Greg Kihn|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1387740344s/818607.jpg|804471]. This one had more fun in it, which allows Kihn's sense of humour free reign.

And it's a fun little plot, demons and ghosts, both real and reel, both real and imagined. Kihn's strength, I'm beginning to learn, isn't in building intriguing characters, but he's a capable writer, and he comes up with some interesting plots.

Looking forward to the sequel to this one, [b:Big Rock Beat: A Wacky Zany Romp|818606|Big Rock Beat A Wacky Zany Romp|Greg Kihn|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1312053383s/818606.jpg|804470]. ( )
