Awesome book.

If you dig zombie & cannibal flicks, this is indispensible.

I am not too into the CANNIBAL flicks because of the animal killing. However I want to learn about it.

Book is my bible.

Required, essential, etc.

Reviews are great, Jay Slater openly condemns the killing of animals every chance he can get in the animal killing heavy movies. There's no glorification of that in this book.

It's really smart, and well written.

Interviews with Giovanni Lombardo Radice are PRICELESS.

Pick it up if you get a chance.

I already ordered it.

Just got it in the mail recently, and I must say it is a pretty well researched book. A must for fans of the genres.

Can anyone say whether this is worth picking up if you already own Jamie Russel's Book of the Dead?

As an owner of the book in question and as your consigliore, I think I can safely say that you won't regret buying it.

It was amazing. A very epic book. I recommend it!

I have that Jaime Russel book as well as this one.

Eaten Alive blows it out of the water when it comes to it's Italian zombie movie research, reviews, interviews, etc.

Crucial book to own for sure!

Are you serious?
Yes it does though, but are you like 4?

I literally have a checklist in that book. I have seen the majority of it now, but there are a few left to go.

This thing is ESSENTIAL to anyone worth a damn in this world....

Isn't one of the most important aspects of a film its visual appeal? So in that case, I think it would be nice to see some cool pictures while reading a book about films.

I agree. Screenshots get me to check out movies sometimes even without reading the synopsis.

I can agree with that, but why would someone need a lot of pictures to read a book?

Yeah, there's a center section with color pics of various movie poters and plenty of B&W pics/stills/screenshots throughout the book as well.


And mmyersisgod...Quit being a douche. The guy asked a simple question.

He never said he needed a lot of pics to read it and that "What are you, 4?" remark was uncalled for and out of line considering the stupidity the rest of us have endured from you.

Save your internet big-shot wannabe shit for another forum.

Thanks and have a nice day.

I will ignore the rest, and apoligze to him. It was uncalled for I was in a bad mood, still no excuse though.

no problem...everything is fine!

With everything aside, I think I will get this book, sounds great!!.

Anyone have a book to recommend about exploitation in general and not just Italian flicks? I am fairly new to exploitation and would like to get as much general/good info as possible.

Actually websites would be good also!

THANKS

Just got this book in the mail! Can't wait to read it, hopefully it offers further insight into movies I've already seen

Hello,everybody.
I am a newer here.
