How a Novelization should be!

Revisado: 10-23-22

Half of this book is comprised of scenes and material that is NOT in the movie. It helps explain and bridge plot points, and when it does directly adapt scenes from the film, it does it in a quick fashion. I commend the writer for making something that directly compliments the film and I sincerely wish more books would take cues from this style.

The best pulp horror novel of its time

Revisado: 07-22-22

Raunchy, depressing, and simplistic, The Howling doesn’t try to be a classic. It is trashy pulp at its core, but somehow this book manages to tell a story that both reinvented the Werewolf genre and makes you care about it’s characters and it’s setting. Better than both of the Howling movies that attempted to adapt it, this was a great (sometimes cheesy, always shocking) listen, especially at night! I sincerely hope to hear the sequel!

Great content. 1/4 of the actual book

Revisado: 07-22-22

Hearing Cooper read his own words is absolutely beautiful and the content of this audiobook is ABSOLUTELY important… problem is,.. whoever made this takes a selection of Cooper’s readings and calls this an unabridged audiobook. It’s only (roughly) a fourth of the content of the REAL book and focuses mainly on aliens. While a great selection, this is NOT the full book. Here’s to a proper audiobook of William Cooper’s prophetic masterpiece.

Thanks Will

Like probably a lot of people, I came here because of the “slap”. After listening to it, I understand Smith; why it happened and why the slap was inevitable based on his life mindset. This really humanized a person I’d known on tv since I was a kid. One of the greatest audiobook performances I’ve ever heard. Smith is the flawed prince, like any of us if we could sit on the throne. I loved it and I get him totally, now. Thanks Will.

If you believe in "smart horror", Adam Green rules

Revisado: 11-04-21

I'm neither an Adam Green or a "Hatchet" superfan,....

.... but I AM a lifelong horror fan and I've watched the Hatchet movies finally. Finding this is a needle-in-a-haystack fluke since I was looked for "adam green" on audible , not Hatchet or Victory Crowley (I wonder if markeing it as a movie-tie-in/novelization would have helped it sell more). After watching the film "Victor Crowley", finding this prompted me to rewatch the entire film series. While the character of Andrew Yong isn't in the series until Hatchet III, Green (the author/narrator) manages to properly summarize and build-upon the first two films, creating a TRUE novelization of the "Hatchet Trilogy", Slasher horror has never held up well to scruitny, but the best portion of this book is an actual COURTROOM DRAMA, with twists and turns that are shocking even to fans who actually watched the events unfold in real time. Adam Green not only understands the character enough to understand him, but at times, I forgot that it wasn't actor Parry Shen playing this role. Green can write, screenwrite, act, Narrate, and direct! Bottom line, this is one of the absolute BEST horror movie tie-ins ever made. Written and read by the writer/director of the series, this is as canon as the film series and develops the universe and the character of Andrew Yong as well as anything could be done.
I'm now a Hatchet and Adam Green superfan. Mr. Green, you took slasher monsters and showed the world why fans have always defended them as legitimate stories.

A good epilogue to a brilliant show

Revisado: 10-31-17

Don't expect clear cut answers, but much like Frost's previous Twin Peaks book, it gives you context, history, and the tools to piece this puzzle together if you've been paying attention. Frost uses incredible prose to tell these stories that expand upon and explain this year's most befuddling series. While this isn't as good as "The Secret History of Twin Peaks", it's essential reading for any fan! Here's to hoping for more books in this series...

I'm no Juggalo but I'm definitely down with the clown

Revisado: 06-17-17

Violent J doesn't just read this, he tells it all to you In a way that makes even the most mundane portions of the book highly entertaining. I'm not big on their music, but I definitely believe ICP is a good thing for this world. Clown Love!

Powerful, painful, and positive

Revisado: 05-04-17

This book isn't for the faint of heart, like the description says, and it's honestly hard to listen to at time. The author/reader's voice adds true depth to these stories of tragedy and recovery. Great stuff, even for someone like me who has never heard of the Cro-Mags. Thanks to @OGKevinGill for the recommendation. PMA 4 LIFE!!!

Who could've found this?

Revisado: 11-02-16

As a major Audible user and a HUGE fan of tie-in media, I think a major opportunity was missed. I only knew this existed from watching the Blu Ray of the movie and taking a gamble that it was real! I'd have probably bought a ticket to see it in theatres had I known this existed
