Mick Garris Orden de los libros (cronológico)

Introduction by Stephen King, Afterword by Tobe Hooper, Jacket and Interior Art by Clive Barker. A LIFE IN THE CINEMA is the debut collection from filmmaker Mick Garris, featuring eight provocative tales and a screenplay that delve into the gritty realities of both real life and reel life. The title story and its sequel, "Starfucker," are set in Hollywood, offering a cynical perspective on a world often perceived as glamorous. As Stephen King notes, Garris provides an insider's view of filmmaking's complexities, blending eroticism with cynicism in stories that are both compelling and sharply told. Garris's writing evokes a mix of Robert Bloch and James Ellroy, capturing the dark underbelly of Tinseltown with a unique flair. Beyond Hollywood, the collection includes diverse narratives: a grandmother's enduring love, a geriatric trailer park with hidden secrets, a bittersweet love story, a disturbing twist on baby-love, and a chilling encounter with fame. The book concludes with a screenplay and its source story, "Chocolate," showcasing Garris's skill in adapting his work. Prepare to explore a shadowy side of Hollywood that remains largely unseen.
