Zombies ... Kung Fu ... Masked Killers ... Giant Monsters ... Barbarians ... Cannibals ... And more Away from the glittering lights and busy streets of mainstream film, there are dark and forgotten places, where the hiss of static in a dark room begins a fever dream, where the bizarre rears its head out of the screen and smacks you between the eyes. Those cinematic moments that shake you awake and make you ask yourself if you really saw that. Those moments are a virus that worms itself into your mind, into your DNA, and the only way to escape it is to pass it on. Between these covers you will find 229 more of these viral bullets waiting to infect you. Here you'll find neon-dressed ninjas disguised as fish, zombies with flying heads, comedies about glue-sniffing serial killers, demonic Santas, policemen that are part-time wizards, Bigfoot rampages, singing cowboys, killer mannequins, hypnotized acid-spewing frogs that know kung fu, and countless more moments that will make you ask, "What the heck was THAT?"
