"There are many delightful insights into the making of this franchise: Sean Cunningham’s own tortuous journey to making the slasher of slashers in 1980; a casting coup involving Betsy Palmer, a role she took up because her Mercedes conked out and she needed a new gas guzzler for the new decade: the details are what makes this book a wonder."
"All ten of the Friday The 13th movies (plus Freddy vs Jason but not the 2009 remake) are covered in absolute detail with loads of interviews with the actors (the stars for lack of a better word), the producers/directors etc you name it but the opinions are honest if people regretted ever being associated with the franchise, didn't get along with x it's still put in and helps make it such an outstanding read."
"Peter Bracke did an excellent job putting together this behind the scenes chronicle of arguably the most popular, controversial, and longest running horror franchise in cinematic history."
"I also own the hardcover copy of this, but decided to double-dip for the enhanced digital ebook, and it did not disappoint."
"Believe it not this is a quick read."
"If you're a fan of the Friday The 13th films or if you are simply interested in filmmaking, this is a wonderful read."
"With interviews and pictures rarely seen, this book tells fans everything they've wondered, and much of what they didn't."
This book pays tribute to the greatest set designer of the modern era. the catalog feels sweetly interwar yet ahead of its time.
