Midnight Premiere
Edited by Tom Piccirilli
Cemetery Dance, Nov 2006, $40.00
ISBN 1587671468
These eighteen horror stories pay homage to the genre’s classic B movies with some of the contributors coming from the silver screen. The collection has a few excellent tales (mostly by veteran writers) such as Gary Braunbeck’s scary “Onlookers”, Thomas F. Montelone’s “End of Story”, Ray Garton’s “Everything Must Go” and Ed Gorman’s “Scream Queen”, etc. However those written by the filmdom contributors even in tandem with a veteran author seem aimed more at zombies rather than horror fans. Still overall this is a fun compilation with the extra incentive of trying to pair the tale to a B, in some cases a D film.
