Description
Book Synopsis American International released a tide of low-budget, sensationalistic films aimed at the teenage audience, finding its greatest success in the horror genre. This is a comprehensive alphabetical guide to AIP movies that are or have been available in home viewing formats such as DVD and VHS. A brief history of the company, which produced movies from the 1950s until the 1980s, is provided. AIP television and unfilmed projects are also covered, and numerous photographs complement the text.
Trade ReviewHandy and helpful, with more than statistical information for each title. This reference is most highly recommended to scholar and film buff alike. It is an essential addition to any comprehensive library of film study and reference materials. One of the very best books of its kind"—
