Icons of Fright: 100 Interviews with Legendary Horror Filmmakers
First published 2025
What happens when one hundred of the genre’s brightest luminaries sit down for the most candid and revealing interviews of their careers? You wind up with Icons of Fright: 100 Interviews with Legendary Horror Filmmakers! Conducted over two decades and spanning seventy-five years of film, these interviews offer a unique and often raw insight into the classic horror films of yesteryear and today (and some not-so-classics). From the Universal Monsters to modern meta, there’s something here for every horror fan to sink their fangs into. Featuring an introduction by writer/director Neil Marshall (The Descent, Dog Soldiers, Hellboy), the book contains a slew of never before seen interviews. These include new discussions with Parker Finn (Smile), Jon Watts (Final Destination: Bloodlines) and Danny Philippou (Talk to Me) along with several “lost” interviews with Tom Holland (Fright Night), Katt Shea (The Rage: Carrie 2) and David J. Schow (The Crow). “It’s like having a fun, long dinner with old friends,” says Oscar-winning filmmaker Guillermo del Toro.
