Your Favorite Scary Movie: How the Scream Films Rewrote the Rules of Horror by Ashley Cullins

emotional informative reflective fast-paced

5.0

Your Favorite Scary Movie is written by longtime journalist/debut author Ashley Cullins, and it is not merely a retrospective of a beloved horror series, Scream. It is actually chock full of behind the scenes information about the making of each film (including the newest installment, yet to be released), and features quotes from nearly everyone involved ever - from Kevin Williamson to Parker Posey. Cullins mentioned interviewing a whopping eighty people for this project! 

Her tenacity paid off big time, as this book is a remarkable achievement. I have loved these films since only one of them existed, and I have seen lots of making-of material over the years. Still, this book taught me so much, entertained me, and kept me flipping pages for hours. I read this in just a few sittings. Five enthusiastic stars!
