Product Information

Running to 528 large-format pages, Nightmare USA is a veritable encyclopedia of grindhouse cinema - it's one of the most acclaimed genre film books ever published, and after having Sold Out three times over already, it's finally back in print!From Quentin Tarantino (Kill Bill) to Eli Roth (Hostel), the young guns of modern Hollywood just can't get enough of that exploitation film high. That's because, between 1970 and 1985, American Exploitation movies went berserk. With censorship relaxed, and the gate to excess wide open, horror offered a vibrant alternative to the mainstream of American cinema. Luridly titled wonders like The Headless Eyes, Scream Bloody Murder and Hitch Hike to Hell were everywhere, from the drive-ins of Texas to the grindhouses of New York. Massively popular around the world, American exploitation movies added immensely to the richness of the nation's cinema.Built on five years of research, Nightmare USA explores the development of America's subterranean horror film industry, spotlighting some of the wildest films imaginable from an era unchecked by censorship or 'good taste.' Ranging from cult favourites like I Drink Your Blood to stylish mind-benders like Messiah of Evil and shockers like Don't Go in the House, Nightmare USA goes where no other in-depth study has gone before, revealing the fascinating true stories behind classics and obscurities alike. Author Stephen Thrower has explored the attics and cellars of American cinema, delved beneath the floorboards, peered between the walls, searching for the strangest, most exotic cine-lifeforms... Nightmare USA is the reader's guide to what lies beyond the mainstream of American horror, dispelling the shadows to meet the men and women behind fifteen years of screen terror: the Exploitation Independents!This massive overview of the Horror genre's development through the 1970s and 1980s features:In-depth EXCLUSIVE interviews with twenty-five grindhouse movie makers, many of whom are discussing their work for the first time ever in print, including David Durston (I Drink Your Blood), Robert Endelson (Fight for Your Life), Frederick Friedel (Axe), Don Jones (Schoolgirls in Chains); and Joseph Ellison (Don't Go in the House).Over 175 individual films reviewed, with full cast and crew credits.Vast quantities of previously unpublished stills, posters, press-books, plus behind-the-scenes photographs from the filmmakers' own collections.

Reviews
"When was the last time you read a book that opened up a whole new world of dazzling information? This truly ground-breaking labor of love is remarkable in scope, hugely entertaining and crammed with little-known facts." -- Alan Jones, Fangoria, "The best book about the blood-drenched, scream-inducing, golden era of US independent horror cinema imaginable. Buy or die!"-- Billy Chainsaw, Bizarre, "One of the most fascinating and important film books in recent memory, Thrower's massive tome is not just a tribute to the joys of regional filmmaking, it's also ultimately nothing less than a secret history of American cinema." -- Travis Crawford, Film Comment, "One of the most fascinating and important film books in recent memory, Thrower's massive tome is not just a tribute to the joys of regional filmmaking, it's also ultimately nothing less than a secret history of American cinema."-- Travis Crawford, Film Comment, "The best book about the blood-drenched, scream-inducing, golden era of US independent horror cinema imaginable. Buy or die!" -- Billy Chainsaw, Bizarre, "When was the last time you read a book that opened up a whole new world of dazzling information? This truly ground-breaking labor of love is remarkable in scope, hugely entertaining and crammed with little-known facts."-- Alan Jones, Fangoria, Thrower is an obvious enthusiast, eager to convert non-believers. Mercifully, he's also enough of a realist to admit that not all of these films are pure gold, which results in a healthy balance of praise and considered criticism. -- Film Review, Thrower's urbane, witty and knowledgeable style captures the very essence of this work with a rare and zesty perception. -- Shivers magazine

It took me a long time to open this package! I’ve been looking forward to this book for so long that I didn’t want to be disappointed by it not being in great shape. I opened it today and it’s in amazing shape! Very well packaged! Description and pictures were very accurate! And the seller even sent me two bucks because the shipping was less than initially thought. Amazing seller! Thank you so much!

  • giant amazing book

    I heard about this book. I checked it out on Amazon, and everyone liked it a lot. It's an in-depth study of maybe a hundred classic exploitation movies from 1970 to 1985. About twenty of them get giant coverage, big essays and bios of the directors. The book weighs a ton. By a British writer, and he's really very good. You may not agree with his taste, but he's definitely the one to enthuse on these movies. I have found in some cases that reading about them is better than sitting through them. This book is for you, if you like this kind of movie. And as the author admits, he's still just getting started - it should be the first of two volumes, but he doesn't think he'll have time for the second...I can see why, since this one took years to do.
