Hey folks, wanted to make you aware of a killer new book that just debuted: MONSTERS UNBORN: THE LOST UNIVERSAL MONSTER REMAKES by Bruce Kilkowski Jr. It's a wild read, covering FIFTEEN abandoned remakes of classic Universal horrors from filmmakers like John Carpenter, George Romero, Mick Garris, Anne Rice, and David Goyer, among others.

It's all pretty fascinating for anyone interested in the canceled further misadventures of Dr. Pretorius, the Rita, Kharis, Dr. Griffin, and Lawrence Talbot! (And full disclosure: While I didn't write this book, I did have a hand in its release.)
Would love to know which lost remakes sounded best to this crowd, whether it be the boldly reimagined takes or the more faithful continuations.
I saw this for sale. Ought to be a fascinating read!
