Mythoughts
This isn't my firs time reading a book like this but out of all the rest this one is so far the best because its more about how the films came to then just about the movies it talks about , the history behind the movies so to speak which i loved, the movies gong from Halloween to friday the 13th just to name a few of the movies ,so if you know someone who loves horror movies or if its you might want to look this one up with that said I want to thank Edelweiss for letting me read and review it .
