Protoclown | I've read "The Great and Secret Show" and "Neverwhere" which were both pretty good. MUCH better than that festering piece of shit movie "Lord of Illusions". Still, I felt that the writing was a bit haphazard and the storytelling a bit sloppy in those books. | ||

kellychaos | I apologize to all who read this read. The writer I was thinking of for the novel is Clive Barker. I guess I had the whole horror movie director thing in my head and transposed the names. I don't even know if Wes Craven writes novels. Again, sorry if I wasted anyone's time. | ||

kellychaos | Exactly. That's why I thought his books would be cliche too but then I saw a few in the bargain bin at Border's. I sat down and started skimming a few pages and decided it actually wasn't bad. I guess his work just doesn't translate to film too well. | ||

Skulhedface | I would HOPE they are better than his movies. Nightmare on Elm Street owned....then he gives us the cinematic suppository called Scream 3. Egh. | ||

Wes Craven His novels are SO much better than his movies. I kind of avoided his books for a while thinking that his writing would be kind of trite. Finally, I relented and started reading "Cold Heart Canyon". It has everything sex, gore, Hollywood gossip, freakish actors, monks, Satan, evilly painted wall tiles (you'll have to read it) and did I say sex. I'm looking forward to reading another of his. |
