Baron Frankenstein and his lurching monster . . . Count Dracula, fangs dripping with jugular gore . . . Martian invaders against whom Earth's weapons are powerless . . . burial alive, black magic, human sacrifice . . . the cold, clammy terrors of grave and crypt — these are the delicious nightmares which have captivated generations of movie-goers. In Horror Movies Carlos Clarens, a well-known film critic and contributor to magazines on the cinema, surveys the subject of the horror film (including science fiction) from its early origins to the present day. In addition to his absorbing analysis of the fascination of horror on the screen and close examination of the work of major directors and actors in the field, he also includes a fully illustrated filmography.
