Every Baby Boomer Monster Kid has seen each of his movie favorites a dozen times, perhaps several dozen times-but how many of the source novels has he read? Top classics such as Dracula and Frankenstein yes, perhaps, but what about the novels that inspired less illustrious thrillers such as The Old Dark House and The Lodger? The minor movies The Maze and Dr. Renault's Secret? Schlock like The Navy vs. the Night Monsters and The Deadly Bees? From Page to Silver Scream reduces each one of 21 novels to the length of a single chapter, in hopes of inspiring readers to obtain copies of these works and "book" (pun intended) a cover-to-cover tour. The ways in which many of the movies deviate from the novels will surprise you. In addition to the half-dozen titles cited above, this book also features recaps of the stories that inspired: Murder by the Clock The Mask of Fu Manchu The Ghoul The Hound of the Baskervilles The Dark Eyes of London The Devil Commands The Uninvited Weird Woman (and Burn, Witch, Burn) Dragonwyck Donovan's Brain This Island Earth Back from the Dead The Incredible Shrinking ManThe 27th Day The Day of the Triffids
