In addition to the comprehensive filmography, there is a biography of Carradine (contributed by Gregory Mank), commentary on the man by indie film director Fred Olen Ray (who helmed many latter-day Carradine movies), and an interesting piece by director Joe Dante, who writes about Carradine's involvement in Dante's 1981 werewolf movie The Howling.]]> 169320 4.45 47 1 282576 4.56 32 5 1999 612734 1887664106 9781887664103 0 <![CDATA[Monsters, Mutants and Heavenly Creatures: Confessions of 14 Classic Sci-Fi/Horrormeisters!]]> http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1176320457m/612734.jpg http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1176320457s/612734.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/612734.Monsters_Mutants_and_Heavenly_Creatures_Confessions_of_14_Classic_Sci_Fi_Horrormeisters_ 4.33 3 169320 4.45 47 1 2001 440648 0786407557 9780786407552 0 <![CDATA[Return of the B Science Fiction and Horror Movie Makers: Writers, Producers, Directors, Actors, Moguls and Makeup]]> http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1174791015m/440648.jpg http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1174791015s/440648.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/440648.Return_of_the_B_Science_Fiction_and_Horror_Movie_Makers_Writers_Producers_Directors_Actors_Moguls_and_Makeup 4.33 3 This classic volume represents the union of two previous volumes: Interviews with B Science Fiction and Horror Movie Makers ("more fun than the lovably cheap movies that inspired it"-Booklist/RBB); and Science Fiction Stars and Horror Heroes ("candid...a must" -ARBA).
