Now Available for Pre-Order: Horror Films FAQ (with a foreword by Chris Carter!)

My new book, Horror Films FAQ is now available for pre-order at Amazon.com, and is on sale now at Hal Leonard.  The books just came into the warehouse this morning...

The book is the latest addition to the long-standing FAQ series, which has been described as: "a one-stop source of info, history, and minutia on an array of performing arts subjects."

Basically, the book includes thirty chapters focusing on aspects of the horror film such as found footage horror films, slasher films, J-Slashers, remakes, horror history, directors, and so forth.  

There are two chapters on slasher films, two chapters on "alien" movies, and an array of information about everything from mad scientist films to "rape and revenge" films, to zombie films.  The final chapter deals with horror television.

But what pleases me so tremendously about the book is that the foreword is penned by The X-Files creator: writer/director Chris Carter.  

Mr. Carter's foreword not only introduces the terrain of the book's subject matter, but discusses his time making the The X-Files (and dealing with network censorship...) and details Carter's history with and love for the genre going back to his childhood.  It's a great read, and starts off the book in brilliant fashion.  

I hope as readers of the blog, you'll support Horror Films FAQ, and let me know what you think!
