Customer Reviews
Great movie, great book!
I saw the classic 1978 movie years ago, and I loved it, which is what made me decide to read the book! And what a great book it was! Before reading this book, I had previously read two other books by John Farris, Wildwood and Son of the Endless Night. I love Son of the Endless Night, which would have motivated me to read this book even if I had not seen the movie! But the movie only made me even more eager to read the book because it is a terrifying movie! So is the book! I like this chilling book so much that I am very excited about reading the sequels, regardless of the fact that I don’t usually like reading series! Anyone who is a fan of John Farris, or is simply a huge fan of horror and suspense will find a thrilling story when they read this suspenseful, terrifying shocker! Enjoy!
