Reviews
Sykes writes authoritatively and informatively and never becomes bogged down in thesis-style analytics. In fact, so readable is this relaxed writing style that ultimately his enthusiasm becomes infectious....engrossing...educational...recommend[ed] --Cinema Retro; Sykes looks back at this sub-genre of films to give them a critical analysis that hasn't been done before...rare stills...an interesting read --Kitley's Krypt; combines elements from horror, film noir and road movies to tell stories of isolation and violence --Horror Hound; in addition to being a very talented filmmaker, Brad Sykes also shows us that he is one hell of an author as well with his book...it is nothing short of awesome. I thoroughly enjoyed reading it as Sykes knows his stuff when it comes to these movies. I had a blast reading this book and if you're into these types of films I guarantee that you will too...very well-written...it is obvious that Sykes put his heart and soul into it. If you ever have a question about a movie that takes place in the desert all you have to do is pick up a copy of this book and you'll find your answer very quickly because that is how well put together and comprehensive this book is --Horror News.
