Book Reviews of The Horror Movie Survival Guide
Book Review: Totally funny and a must read!!
Summary: 5 Stars
This book is hilarious. It runs downs numerous monsters/killers from well known and not so well known horror and sci-fi movies. The run down has the movie it was from, a quote from the film, the habitat, origin, behavior, cravings, how dangerous they are, how to kill them, their current status, and the body count of their victims. That is all well and good, but they way they explain some of is it done in a very humorus way. I'll be honest and say I wasn't expecting much when I ordered it, because I got it with another order. But when I started reading it, I was incredibly happy that I got it. I highly recommend it!!
