Book review - " Corman/Poe Interviews and Essays Exploring the Making of Roger Corman’s Edgar Allan Poe films, 1960–1964" by Chris Alexander

 Look, I guess this is fine. It's the sort of book I was always going to like. I just wish it was better. There's synopses and essays of the films, plus an interview with Corman on each of the films - but only of the main eight, not of the spin offs like The Terror or of the second wave of Poe adaptations with Price. And only talks with Corman, no one else. The definitive (or even a more comprehensive) book on this topic awaits.
