YA Guy Says... Let the Giveaway Begin!


Well, YA Guy promised, and you delivered!

We're now up to 1300 page views on YA Guy (actually 1301 last time I checked), so the giveaway is about to commence.

Just to remind you, I'm giving away a signed copy of my book FRAMING MONSTERS, which discusses all kinds of monster movies, from the classics (like King Kong) to the contemporary (like X-Men). It's also got a chapter on monstrous women in fantasy film, so it's right up YA Guy's alley.

I've set the giveaway to start tomorrow to provide people time to get all excited.  It'll run for two weeks from that starting date.

So join, tweet, visit, have fun, go crazy.

YA Guy loves ya!

    1. Yeah, ALIENS, JURASSIC PARK, SPECIES.... There were a ton of those films in the 80s and 90s. Even something like THE LITTLE MERMAID, with the monstrous Ursula, qualifies. I'm trying to think of more modern examples--can you?

    3. Awesome list--some great camp horror classics, as well as some legitimately good films. I'd only add that there are some monstrous-woman films where the gender issues are less obvious--the Jurassic Park films, with their female dinos, being the primary example I use in my book.

  3. Congratulations, Josh. I'll have to figure out how to do this giveaway stuff on my blog. It's my first one, and I'm still learning my way around.
