A review by ash_reads_horror
Horror Movie by Paul Tremblay
4.0
Time for a review of a highly anticipated release for 2024!
The book follows the man who played "The Thin Kid" in the cult classic movie "Horror Movie." The funny thing is the movie was never fully released. Three scenes were uploaded to the internet and the movie took off. And now it's getting a reboot!
Some believe the movie is cursed. "The Thin Kid" is the only surviving cast member from the original small cast of the film. There were many accidents and bizarre occurrences on set.
This book will mess with your mind. It bounces back and forth between the present-day filming of the new movie and the filming of the movies back in the 90's. We see how deeply "The Thin Kid" got into his character, so much so that we're unsure if he's ever moved past his role... or if the role became him.
I will say it took me a little while to get into the flow of the book. It's told in a typical Tremblay way--a bit disjointed but worth the work in the end.
This book is perfect for readers who enjoy a solid Hollywood/cursed film type of read
Special thanks to Netgalley, Paul Tremblay, and William Morrorw Books for the opportunity to read an ARC of this book!
