Book Presentation:
Arnold made some of the most enduring science-fiction films of the 1950s-It Came from Outer Space, Creature from the Black Lagoon, and The Incredible Shrinking Man. But only recently has he been recognized as a distinguished genre director, 3-D pioneer, and artist of international repute. This is the first complete critical appreciation of his career and works. Extensive interview material, many rare and previously unpublished photographs, storyboards, and the first complete Arnold filmography are included.
