Synopsis:

Your book. . .guided me through my first completed movie. --Quentin Tarantino, on Scare Tactics

From the Master of the Living Dead

John Russo's brilliantly chilling screenplay for the 1968 groundbreaking Night of the Living Dead helped pave the wave for the flesh-eating spectacles that have thrilled zombie fans for three generations. Here, for the first time in one volume, are two of the master's most gruesome and demented novels of gut-wrenching mayhem. . .

Midnight

First, they captured small animals. Then, they moved on to bigger prey. Now the backwoods family that slays together stays together for one last midnight snack: a pair of unsuspecting travelers whose ritual torture and sacrifice will only intensify the demonic clan's cravings. . .for more.

Yeah, they're dead. . .they're all messed up.

Escape From The Living Dead

In an isolated roadside diner, a desperate group of strangers barricade themselves against a ravenous horde of undead customers who crave something more than the early bird special. They want flesh. Human flesh. With a side order of brains and stomach-turning terror.

A Two-for-One Feast for Hungry Horror Fans!

"An unrelieved orgy of sadism." --Variety on Night of the Living Dead

About the Author: John Russo wants everyone to know he&;s really nice guy even though he loves to scare people. He started it by co-scripting the 1968 horror classic  Night of the Living Dead, one of the  greatest fright flicks of all time, ranked #18 on the Internet Movie Database&;s top 100 Scariest Movies. (In a fine example of showmanship and multi-tasking, he also played a zombie in the film.) He also wrote the screenplays and/or stories for Midnight, Santa Claws, The Majorettes, Return of the Living Dead, Bloodsisters, and Inhuman. 
 
Mr. Russo has authored fifteen terror-suspense novels, including  Living Things, The Awakening, Voodoo Dawn, and Inhuman.  His nonfiction books Scare Tactics and Making Movies are considered bibles of independent filmmaking by film students and horror fans.
 
Those who are not faint of heart will enjoy digging into this presentation of Midnight and Escape of the Living Dead.
Mr. Russo resides in a suburb of Pittsburgh, PA. To his knowledge, none of his neighbors are zombies, though &;there is that one guy around the corner who is rumored to have devoured the mailman a few years ago.&;
