Book Review - Horror Movie by Paul Tremblay with book display ideas

 I review horror for Library Journal upon occasion and I am going to start posting my draft reviews here. Horror Movie by Paul Tremblay will be published in June 2024 and it's a stellar book. You can read my starred review here

Because the book is about an indie horror film from 1993, a display of 1990's horror films would be a great way to use the book for a display or list. You can dig through your backlist to find authors and horror titles from the 90's as well. 

Your non-fiction collection may also include books about film making, the history of films, horror movies, and biographies of actors and directors. It's a great book to use as inspiration for programming about indie filmmaking.

Look for read alikes to add to a display such as The Remaking by Clay McLeod Chapman, How To Make a Horror Movie and Survive by Craig DiLouie, and We Sold Our Souls by Grady Hendrix. I would also add book about slashers like Final Girl Support Club also by Grady Hendrix and Final Girls by Riley Sager.
