But Stanley knows his stuff. Within moments of opening the book I had a list of movies to hunt down. Stanley writes in a familiar, friendly style. Although he comes across as “one of the guys,” no quality of writing will ever convince me that the demonic travesty Batman & Robin is worth 3 stars (out of 5), the same as far superior films such as The Adventures of Baron Munchausen, Akira, and Escape from New York. But even with that weakness, the information in Creature Features is invaluable. Who'd have thought that David Twohy, the talented writer/director of The Arrival and Pitch Black, did an earlier made‑for‑cable film? Or that the 1991 director’s cut of Blade Runner was actually, according to director Ridley Scott, a test work print (an “approved” director’s cut was released in 1992)? That is important information for SF geeks. ( )
