258 David Sterritt, Film Critic, Author, The B List, Joins Us On Mr. Media!

Today's Guest: David Sterritt, author, The B List: The National Society of Film Critics on the Low-Budget Beauties, Genre-Bending Mavericks, and Cult Classics We Love Order from Amazon.com by clicking the book above! Just a few weeks ago I was telling my wife about the scariest movie I ever saw: Tales From the Crypt. This 1972 gore fest came replete with a psycho Santa and a beating heart – left in a crumpled up letter, as I recall. I was 12 when I saw it at the State Theater in New Brunswick , NJ, with my friend, Robert Douglas. That movie scared the living shit out of me. First and only time I ever moved to the back of the theater and felt like I might vomit. Gave me nightmares not for days, but years. I mention it now because it is one of the “gems” featured in a new book, The B List, edited by David Sterritt and John Anderson. What is the mark of a great ‘B’ move? Is it scaring the crap out of 12-year-old boys? That’s one of the questions I’ll ask my guest, David Sterritt, chairman of the National Society of Film Critics and a film professor at Columbia University.
