註釋In 1984 Mr. McGee wrote ("very well"--Choice) the acclaimed Fast and Furious, a history of American International Pictures. But, as McGee wrote us in his out of the blue offer to do a bigger and better, "Because of my unnatural interest, I've never stopped."
The result of his ceaseless efforts can be found in this updated and expanded look at AIP. From the time Sam Arkoff and Jim Nicholson founded the company, they dominated the low-budget film market with such teen-oriented movies as Beach Party, The Wild Angels and I Was a Teenage Werewolf. Their movies were frowned on by critics not because they were terrible (which they mostly were) but because they were so shameless in their intent--to make money. This new work includes the most comprehensive AIP filmography ever assembled, as well as many new photographs not included in the earlier work.
