About this title

About the Author:

With twenty books published internationally and nineteen feature movies in worldwide distribution, John Russo has been called a “living legend.” He began by co-authoring the screenplay for Night of the Living Dead, which has become recognized as a “horror classic.” His three books on the art and craft of movie making have become bibles of independent production, winning a national award for Superior Nonfiction. Quentin Tarantino and many other noted filmmakers have stated that Russo’s books helped them launch their careers. John Russo wants people to know he’s “just a nice guy who likes to scare people” — and he’s done it with novels and films such as Return of the Living Dead, Midnight, The Majorettes, and Heartstopper. He has had a long, rewarding career, and he shows no signs of slowing down. Recently his screenplay for Escape of the Living Dead was made into a five-part comic book released by Avatar to great acclaim; it made the Top Ten of Horror Comics nationally and spawned two graphic novels and ten sequels. Russo’s novels The Academy, The Awakening, The Booby Hatch, Dealey Plaza, Limb to Limb, Living Things, and Night of the Living Dead are published by Burning Bulb Publishing. His short story Channel 666 appears in The Big Book of Bizarro also by Burning Bulb Publishing. Russo’s recent novel The Hungry Dead, was published by Kensington Books. He is also slated to direct two movies: a remake of his cult hit, MIDNIGHT, and a brand new take on the “zombie phenomenon” entitled SPAWN OF THE DEAD. His popularity among genre fans remains at a high pitch. He appears at many movie conventions each year as a featured guest, and he considers his appearance at the Orion Festival, hosted by Kirk Hammett and METALLICA, one of the highlights of his career.
