It's Alive!: Classic Horror and Sci-Fi Movie Posters from the Kirk Hammett Collection

One of the worldâ€™s premier collections of horror and sci-fi movie posters amassed, not altogether surprisingly, by the dark mind of Metallicaâ€™s lead guitarist, Kirk Hammett.Â Before Kirk Hammett assumed the heavy metal mantle of one of the most successful and beloved bands in rock history, he was a geek for the imaginative universe of horror. This generously illustrated book highlights the finest examples from Hammettâ€™s personal collectionâ€”an astonishing trove of horror and sci-fi film posters that span the history of the genre. The guitarist credits his musical force to a lifelong fascination with the gothic fantasy developed in these films and their original posters. In this volume, several intriguing essays cover the history of the film poster, the brainâ€™s response to fear, and Hammettâ€™s own contributions to the world of the macabre.
