Summary

Hot & Horrifying: The First Ladies of Horror is a must-hear for all fans of the "Scream Queen" and fans of independent horror as well. The term "Scream Queen" has at times been associated with negative comments from film critics who find the term - and the films it is associated with - to be demeaning, exploitive of women in horror films. Then again, some of these critics have admittedly never seen a horror film, let alone met the actresses they seem so intent on stereotyping.

To the author, David [Byron] Boyer, the term is one of endearment, a label of love, one worthy of praise and respect. He has gotten to know these women, inside and out, and has found the inner beauty as well as the scary exterior. He has gotten to know the often unsung heroes of the business, like filmmaker Liz Adams, The Chainsaw Mafia's Shannon Lark, and Dread Central's journalist Elaine Lamkin, whose contributions to their respective fields remain unsurpassed.

Thank you, ladies, for being "Hot and Horrifying". What would horror cinema be without you?

Featuring interviews with Debbie Rochon, Shannon Lark, Brooke Lewis, Kelli Maroney, Teri McMinn, and many more.
