Sure, a few fell flat for me but they all had something to offer. It would be hard for me to cite which story was my favorite because I appreciated most of them for what they were worth. We get a whole platoon of the weird and freaky here, from the giant crabs we see on the cover, to giant ants, maggots, giant vampires.and yes, even giant porn stars!Įach story is fairly short and a quick bit of fun, with the emotional content ranging from the terror-inducing, to the gut wrenching, to the ridiculously hilarious (Attack of the 500-Foot Porn Star is a prime example). This book brought me back to those memories.and twisted and swirled them up as well. Before VCRs and cable movies saturated us with a constant flow of these old flicks it was a treat to discover a rare old gem with some soggy monster or genetically enhanced or nuclear radiated ant or rat or lizard that had decided to inact revenge on humanity. I must admit there has always been a place in my heart for the old creature features I used to watch as a kid, before the days of cable TV, that the networks would show sometimes on Friday Nights, Saturday Afternoons, and once a year, weekday afternoons (the Japanese monster collection-Godzilla, Gidorah, Monster X, etc).
