Synopsis

The drive-ins are mostly gone. Video stores are history. Independent bookstores and theaters are endangered species. Shopping malls have become mausoleums. The third He Who Types Between the Rows book is a requiem for marvels of the past.

Even while the genre climate changes, gadabout horror enthusiast Mark Sieber reminds us that drive-ins, video stores, and all the rest are states of mind. Horror rises again from the tomb as it always has and as it always will.

Buy your ticket, stamp your library card, and dust off those old classics. He Who Types Between the Rows 3: Requiem is a guided tour of the genre through the lens of an eternal boy who watched the genre from the venerable days of black and white classics to the television revolution, and on through the advent of videotapes and DVD.

See horror milestones honored. Gasp as sacred cows are ground into hamburger. Thrill to dozens of reviews, rants, and pointed observations from the mind of fan whose mind is a miasma of horror tropes.

Say their names: Whale. Browning. Lewton. Karloff. Lugosi. Price. Corman. Lovecraft. Matheson. Bloch. Straub. Grant. Romero. Craven. Hooper. Shine a light on their memories that will illuminate the horror stars of the present and the future.

Mark Sieber and the He Who Types Between the Rows series pledge to keep the old horror stars alive, while celebrating the genre as it still lives and breathes.
