Review # 1 was written on 2021-01-25 00:00:00 John Reske Dry humor, concise but inclusive coverage, and a fascinating subject comprises McGee's book on the ways the studios promoted movies (mostly horror) with gimmicks, screen resizing, theater giveaways, and rigging theaters (like with Castle's Percepto or Emergo, using 3-D, etc. McGee even covers the radio blurbs that boosted the hyperbole to the stratosphere. Very enjoyable read. These are the creative, often wacky, promo campaigns that studios pushed on theaters and the public before the Internet took all the fun out of it. |
Review # 2 was written on 2011-10-10 00:00:00 Melita Mayfield Quick and breezy, but still a delightful ode to the age of hucksterism in cinema promotion. Although with the advent of 3-D, who isn't to say SENSURROUND or DYNAVISION or BONERTRONICS won't make a strong comeback. Reccommended. |
