À propos de cet audio
Horror isn't horror unless it's real.
Max Maurey should be on top of the world. He's a famous horror director. Actors love him. Hollywood needs him. He's making money hand over fist. But it's the 80s, and he's directing cheap slashers for audiences who only crave more blood, not real art. Not real horror. And Max's slimy producer refuses to fund any of his new ideas.
Sally Priest dreams of being the Final Girl. She knows she's got what it takes to score the lead role, even if she's only been cast in small parts so far. When Sally meets Max at his latest wrap party, she sets out to impress him and prove her scream queen prowess.
But when Max discovers an old camera that filmed a very real Hollywood horror, he knows that he has to use this camera for his next movie. The only problem is that it came with a cryptic warning and sometimes wails.
By the time Max discovers the true evil lying within, he's already dead set on finishing the scariest movie ever put to film, and like it or not, it's Sally's time to shine as the Final Girl.

Joanna Eberhart is a creative, self-possessed wife and mother, newly arrived in seemingly idyllic Stepford, Connecticut. But as she and her family begin settling in, she’s jarred by the unaccountable sameness of the local wives: all flawlessly attractive, with perfectly maintained homes—and little seeming interest in anything else. As curiosity turns to concern, Joanna finds herself unraveling a web of malice that threatens her very existence.

Meet Laszlo, eight-hundred-year-old demon and Hell’s least productive Curse Keeper. From his office beneath Midtown, he oversees the Drakeford Curse, which involves a pathetic family upstate and a mysterious black monolith. It’s a sexy enough assignment—colonial origins, mutating victims, et cetera—but Laszlo has no interest in maximizing the curse’s potential; he’d rather sunbathe in Ibiza, quaff martinis, and hustle the hustlers on Manhattan’s subway.

Welcome to the Grand Abeona Hotel: home of the finest food, the sweetest service, and the very best views the galaxy has to offer. All year round it moves from planet to planet, system to system, pampering guests across the furthest reaches of the milky way. The last word in sub-orbital luxury—and an absolute magnet for intrigue. Intrigues such as: Why are there love poems in the lobby inbox? How many Imperial spies are currently on board? What is the true purpose of the Problem Solver’s conference? And perhaps most pertinently—who is driving the ship?

Gav isn't really sure how he ended up with a castle full of goblins, or why he has a princess locked in a cell. All he can do is play along with his own evil plan in hopes of getting his memories back before he gets himself killed. But as he realizes that nothing—from the incredibly tasteless cloak adorned with flames to the aforementioned princess—is quite what it seems, Gav must face up to all the things the Dread Lord Gavrax has done. And he'll have to answer the hardest question of all—who does he want to be?

Ce que les critiques en disent
—Peter Clines, New York Times bestselling author
—Kealan Patrick Burke, Bram Stoker Award-winning author of Kin on Episode Thirteen
And I loved it. The book never takes itself too seriously and just runs with the premise. It kept making me laugh and is filled with tropes and gore gags that made me laugh.
Max is exactly the sort of person I’d imagine a hardcore horror director to be, and Sally is the Bad Girl/Final Girl I would dream of. The cast of characters is fun and slightly insane in their own ways.
The supernatural elements go completely off the rails by the end but honestly, I was having such a good time that I didn’t care. I listened to the audiobook and cannot stop singing the praises of the narrator. That man understood the assignment.
This is a book for people who love horror movies and the horror genre. It’s silly, gory, and just pure fun from start to finish. Perfect for Halloween!
The Most Fun Horror Comedy I’ve Read All Year
Un problème est survenu. Veuillez réessayer dans quelques minutes.
The vocabulary/prose is capable, the description is vivid, and the author's plotting is creditable, but the book gets annoyingly cerebral and the paranormal elements are treated with humorous intent (expect chuckles - don't expect anything even remotely "scary").
As to presentation: Garrett Michael Brown is an "above-average" reader. His voice-acting choices are often cartoonish, but I enjoyed his performance overall. Hachette Audio Inc. did reasonably well in casting this project.
In toto, 'How To Make A Horror Movie And Survive' reads more like a tale written for Film Studies geeks and Studio Insiders than it is for a general audience.. but I rate it 7/10 stars. I am pleased to have found it on sale (paying $3.19CDN for it) - it was a serviceable distraction for a couple of quiet afternoons - but wouldn't pay full price.
