Sobre IBD

This first volume of a two-volume set covers every film released during the 'first wave' of Hollywood horror (1931-1939), providing 74 chilling entries with important historical context, frightening facts and terrifying trivia. Each entry supplies a detailed production history (derived from trade-publication reports), contemporary press hype, cast, scenario, critiques and behind-the-scenes production tidbits. Postscripts detailing noteworthy events that followed a picture’s theatrical run, such as sequels or award nominations, also are featured. An appendix presents a full roster of horror films that came out of New York instead of Hollywood. This complete history of the first wave of Hollywood horror is thoroughly illustrated and meticulously documented.
