I received my contributor copy of this coffee-table book last night. Other commentators include Ramsey Campbell, Mort Castle, Nancy Kilpatrick, Robert Morrish, Kim Paffenroth, Tony Timpone, F Paul Wilson, and Dacre Stoker.



Freddy, Jason, Frankenstein, and Dracula are just a few of the thrilling movie monsters in this illustrated, collectible reference guide. Monsters from major as well as minor horror films are brought back to life through domestic and international posters, movie stills, and publicity shots. Engaging commentary from leading horror fiction writers, editors, anthologists, and scholars accompany more than 400 movie posters and publicity stills from the early 20th century through to the present day. Not only will you revisit such iconic movies as The Shining, Child's Play, Halloween, Godzilla, and Jaws, to name just a few, you will also learn about the cultural and technological developments that have played a role in the history of the indelible movie monster. Whether you're a screenwriter, producer, director, actor, or just a fan, this reference guide is an invaluable resource about one of our greatest movie genres.

Questions - you may or may not be able to answer yet.



1) Is it safe to assume you handled The Shining & It sections?



2) Did you cover any non-King topics?



Oh and most of all - Congrats!  8-)

I covered lots of non-King sections. I'm not sure that It was covered -- I don't remember that. I wrote about The Shining, Cujo, and 'Salem's Lot, but also about Jaws and Dawn of the Dead, Night of the Living Dead, The Thing and others. At least a dozen -- maybe more. Some of them are brief reminiscences and some of them are more detailed.
