B MOVIE NIGHTMARE -- THE BOOK

Duncan "Dean" Parkin as The Cyclops
B MOVIE NIGHTMARE: B Movies and Genre Films from Monsters to 
Spies.  
William Schoell.

Here it is! My first collection of reviews taken from this blog -- these reviews were originally posted many years ago. 

There are sections on horror films; sci fi films; movies of intrigue and suspense, including film noir; cliffhanger serials; monster movies; B movie series (Crime Doctor, Nancy Drew etc.); TV shows; exploitation films (admittedly the shortest section in the book); spies; and Alfred Hitchcock. Admittedly, Hitch rarely made a "B" movie but the book, like this blog, also covers genre movies from A to Z. The films are listed in chronological order in each section, and there are movie stills as well. Available in the following formats: Kindle, trade paperback, and hardcover. You can buy this book on Amazon

NOTE: Dean Parkin not only played the Cyclops, but also was the giant man in War of the Colossal Beast, the sequel to The Amazing Colossal Man
