Product Description
Monsters are the manifestation of our fears and social paranoias, and an effective watchdog for making sure we all toe the line. Through literature, the monster has found a lasting legacy but, through cinema, it has developed from black & white into full technicolour glory, making the Monster Movie an enduring document of social times, movements, fears and desires. This book peels back the flesh on a few of the monsters that have tingled our spines and caused more than a nightmare over the past 100 years.
