The author has a few favourite movies, some well enough known and others rather more obscure, and this little book is a summary of some of them. Several have a science fiction theme, but then it is an area in which the author has written several books, so it's not that surprising. The book has been released because the author feels he should share his affection for, or perhaps addiction to, some very strange films with those who have yet to discover the delights of the smorgasbord of cinematic output covered in its pages. It's worth reading if only on the off-chance that you might discover something truly wonderful hidden away in its depths.
