Description de l'ouvrage:
From their heyday in the 1950s and 1960s, B movies declined in popularity through the 1970s. As the big Hollywood studios began to make genre films with sky-high budgets, independent producers of low-budget movies could not compete in theaters. The sale of American International Pictures in 1979 and New World Pictures in 1983 marked the end of an era.

The emergence of home video in the 1980s marked the beginning of a new phase, as dozens of B movies were produced each year for the small screen, many becoming cult classics of science fiction, horror and fantasy. Through numerous interviews with producers, directors, photographers and actors, this book sheds light on an overlooked corner of film history with behind-the-scenes stories of 28 low-budget favorites from the 1980s.

À propos de l'auteur :
Francesco Borseti is a film scholar whose continuous research pays particular attention to B movies. He lives in Rieti, Italy.

Revue de Presse:
"those who love ‘B’ movies are going to have a field day…you are in for a treat"—SFCrowsnest; "best horror reference book of 2016…valuable…Borseti has written the definitive book on the era"—Killer Reviews; "a very thorough, interesting, revealing, and intelligent look at an area of cinema that deserves as much attention…highly recommended"—James L. Neibaur, writer.
