Description de l'ouvrage :
Charles Band's Full Moon Entertainment was the most remarkable B-movie studio of the 1990s, responsible for a barrage of sci-fi, fantasy, and horror classics during the last true "golden age" of the home video era. From Puppetmaster to Trancers and beyond, Full Moon transformed the VHS experience for fans worldwide, bringing the inner workings of the movie-making process into the living room, and in turn creating a ravenous fanbase that remains to this day. This book tracks the history of the company, from its late '80s birth among the ruins of the American drive-in through to its bid to survive in the modern digital world. Featuring rare artwork, behind-the-scenes photos, and over 60 exclusive interviews with the cast and crew who helped to create the legendary B-movie studio, this is an essential read for any cult film fan still lamenting the death of the "mom 'n pop" video store.

À propos des auteurs :
Dave Jay is a writer who has contributed to Fangoria, Gorezone, and Horrorhound. William S. Wilson has written articles for a number of film guides and genre magazines, including Fangoria and Deep Red. Torsten Dewi has written numerous successful novels, genre screenplays, and hundreds of articles for a broad selection of magazines, including Playboy and TV Zone.

Revue de Presse :
If you're not familiar (you are), Charles Band's Full Moon Features produced a number of cult films during the Golden Age of VHS home video; the types of films whose wild covers would entice you as you made your way through the aisles at your local Blockbuster. We're talking movies like Demonic Toys, Dollman, and Mandroid, as well as franchises such as Trancers and Puppet Master plus tons more awesome movies you've likely never even heard of (Castle Freak, anyone?). The new book, compiled by Dave Jay, William S. Wilson, and Torsten Dewi, contains over 60 interviews with the cast and crew who worked on these campy treasures, and also features 430 images that range from rare examples of artwork to posters to behind-the-scenes photos many of which have never been published before. --Comet TV
