This is a collection of short stories that centers around movie theaters and drive-in theaters each one of them gives you an 80s horror while some of the stories do fall short majority of them are fun to read. Like in any horror collection there are stories that I wish were a little bit longer and going to a little bit more detail some of them felt like they were cut very abruptly.

I don’t read books like this often but I was in the mood for something different .
I am so happy I read this because I have loved every minute of this hell of a ride.
You love 80’s horror movies like I do then I think you will want to read this one.
I love this anthology so much. I will be wanting to read this again in the future and I would just love to get my hands on a physical copy of this.
I recommend .

I really enjoyed this read - it has short stories set in the 80s which really capture the different authors’ love of movies from that decade and the nostalgia for that time period. There were a few stories that weren’t quite as exciting but for the most part this was campy, fun, silly, and had a variety of villains to root against.

The epitome of a mixed bag of a collection.
Ranging from some pretty great creepy tales by Stephen Grahame Jones and Steve Rasnic Tem....to some truly bad stories about satanic panic and a boomer who doesn't like movies of the 80s.
Some work...some don't.
The vibes were definitely there though, which was fun.

A great collection of horror stories themed after horror movies of the 80s. They were entertaining and definitely scratched that horror itch. I didn't find any that brought the collection down. Recommended.
Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for the opportunity to read this book.

I thought these stories would be a bit more interesting than they were. I realise they are short stories but I was just not enjoying any of them.
