Interviews with B Science Fiction and Horror Movie Makers by Tom Weaver

Interviews with B Science Fiction and Horror Movie Makers by Tom Weaver

For fans of SF and horror films, will there ever be a decade to compare with the 1950s? Actors, directors, producers, and crews prevailed over microbudgets and four-day shooting schedules to create enduring films. This book turns a long-overdue spotlight on many who made memorable contributions to that crowded, exhilarating filmmaking scene. John Agar, Beverly Garland, Samuel Z. Arkoff, Gene Corman, and two dozen more reminisce about the most popular genre titles of the era. Lengthy, in-depth interviews feature canny questions, pointed observations, rare photos, and good fun.

“incisive”—Library Journal; “maybe more fun than the lovably cheap movies that inspired it”—Booklist; “fabulous”—Cornerstone Magazine; “fascinating”—New York Daily News; “I enjoyed every page”—VOYA; “Weaver’s well-informed questions elicit articulate and informative reminiscences about the colorful world of low-budget filmmaking”—Neil Barron, Editor of Fantasy and Horror

Tom Weaver of Sleepy Hollow, New York, has been interviewing moviemakers for 35 years.
