Reviews"All the movies you couldn't see, and are glad you couldn't or wish you had! Page after page of films you never knew your favorite actors made. A must!" --Karen Black "An absolute must for those who lust after the slime and sleaze of B movies. Loose, lecherous, and totally offbeat." --Cinefatastique on The Psychotronic Encyclopedia of Film "Finally, the long-awaited sequel to the greatest book of Psychtronic films. Amust for every true film lover." --Johnny Ramone "The Psychotronic Encyclopedia is the most dogged, worn-out book in my library. Thank God Michael has come out with a new one." --Quentin Tarantino, "All the movies you couldn't see, and are glad you couldn't or wish you had!

Edition DescriptionRevised edition
SynopsisHow to know a Psychotronic Movie: These films can commonly be identified by their use of exploitation elements and their interest in humanity's lower common demoninators. They occur throughout the world, but are particuarly common at midnight movie festivals and in video stores' cult sections, they are especially frequent at that beloved and dying institution, the drive-in. Their packaging is commonly deceptive. They almost always appear on videocassette. Among their kind are biker films, sci-fi series, quickie biopics, gimmick films, teen sex comedies, blaxploitation films, stalkers, slashers, snoozers, shrudderers, and anything starring Lynda Blair, david Carradine, Shannon Tweed or Drew Barrymore. And they're all here in the Psychotronic Video Guide. From Abby to Zontar, this book covers more than nine thousand amazing movies from the turn of the century right up to today's golden age of video, all described with Michael Weldon's dry wit. More than 450 rare and wonderful illustrations round out the book, making it a treasure trove of cinematic lore and essential for every fan of filmdom's finest offerings.

  • Psychotronic review

    This book not only moves forward with its reviews into the nineties but covers titles that were missed in the first book. So there is more Hitchcock, Russ Meyer and all black casts from the seventies. Some like Invaders from Mars, Head, and Orgy of the Dead are reviewed for a second time. These must be extra special and should be watched first. This is a really good follow up to the first book.
