📝 Description: First Scream to the Last
First Scream to the Last offers an intriguing insight into the horror movies of the Eighties. Extremely comprehensive without being bloated, this essential companion is supported with various interviews from filmmakers and writers of the time, amongst others. An often misunderstood and under appreciated genre, the '80s was arguably its golden era. With the creation of iconic characters and visual images never seen before on film, it remains a special time for anyone involved and the avid horror enthusiast alike. From giallo to slasher, First Scream covers the highest (and not so high) moments of this genre, leaving no question unanswered. Objective, Unbiased, Independent, Informative. www.firstscreamtothelast.com

This title targets the dedicated horror scholar rather than the casual viewer. It is an essential companion for those who value comprehensive, unbiased analysis of film history, specifically focusing on the visual and narrative innovations of the 1980s. However, it does not suit readers seeking plot summaries or fictional narratives; this is a non-fiction study of cinema. Those looking for subjective rants or purely academic theory may find its 'objective' stance dry. It is best consumed by fans who want to understand the context behind iconic images and characters, accepting that it covers a broad spectrum of quality without filtering for only masterpieces.
