 "I
Was A Teenage Juvenile Delinquent Rock 'n' Roll Horror Beach Party Movie
Book"
by Alan Betrock
St. Martin's Press, 1986
Exploitation films have
always been the best part of movie going, and this book celebrates all
the highlights and low lights of 15 years of teenage films. It gives a
great introduction of exploitation film history from the turn of the century
till the mid-50's, telling the story of the films as well as the barnstorming
promoters/con men who put the exploitation cinema on the map. This book
goes year by year, covering the trends and giving great write-ups about
numerous films. You'll find the many examples of the classic bad boy/girl
JD film, the Beatnik cinema, reefer flicks, hot rod'ers, rock 'n' rollers,
beach parties films and other movies about wild youth. Filled with great
photos and movie posters, this book gives some validity to what most people
thought was an unneeded part of the cinema.
