Description

The monster at the heart of a cult 90s horror film reveals its shocking and bloody secret history. Paul Tremblay's latest novel is based on the notorious, disturbing art-house horror film "Horror Movie", which was made by a group of young guerrilla filmmakers in 1993. The film has taken on a mythic reputation despite only three of the original scenes ever being released to the public. Decades later, a big budget reboot is in the works and Hollywood turns to the only surviving cast member - the man who played 'the Thin Kid', the masked teen at the centre of it all. He remembers all too well the secrets buried within the original screenplay, the bizarre events of the filming, and the crossed lines on set. As he recounts his experiences, the boundaries between past and present, scripts and reality begin to blur. But what happens when we revisit our demons? The Thin Kid's tale is a complex web of masks and appearances, Hollywood personalities, and fan conventions that raises questions about the true cost of revisiting the past.
