Horror Movie

Like all of Tremblay's works, Horror Movie is well written, entertaining, and clings to your psyche a little longer than the average tale.
The Thin Kid sounds human, though. Never once does he sound like an animal bleating. He sounds human, terribly human.
The story is told to us through a 90's original movie script as well as the narrator describing the behind the scenes and aftermath. The screenplay itself is dark, and while I'd love to see it turn into a real movie (kind of a twisted slasher), I doubt the book would translate well.
Horror Movie is thoughtful and won't be for everyone, especially those looking for the generic slash and burn books. But it was everything I wanted it to be.
5 chainsaws.
