I grew up on Long Island (though much farther west than this takes place) and the nostalgia was fun. ( ) Extremely well done homage to 80’s horror and 80’s horror films. Seriously, if I didn’t look at the publication date, I would have thought this was a battered old paperback from someone’s attic. Yes, I know it was a kindle book but go with me on this, please? Sheesh. Alien town take-over by particularly nasty parasitic aliens who seed and utilize the local inhabitants as hosts done in 80’s style. Extra points given for the fact that while this was a homage, complete with humor elements, Cesare kept the story line quite scary. Cesare keeps it seemless, too. I couldn’t spot a single anachronism or anything out of place for the time. Even the story was classic deadpan humor coupled with scares in the spirit of Re-animator or Return of the Living Dead. If you are a fan of the horror of this period you will really enjoy this book. I've been a fan of Adam Cesare since I picked up a copy of TRIBESMEN a few years back. This novel is an entirely different experience than TRIBESMEN, but not in a bad way. I particularly enjoyed this story's world, which is teenage America in the latter half of the 1980s. If you grew up during that period and you were a horror nerd, you'll very much recognize the picture Cesare paints of high school movie nights. I'll also think twice before I order black olives on a pizza again. Excellent entertainment and well worth your time. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse
