"Man, I believe the older generation doesn't want the younger generation have any fun," complained one Arizona high school student in the midst of what has often been called "The Fabulous Fifties." For the first time in history, thanks to a booming post-war economy and an emerging middle class, teenagers had money to spend. They developed their own culture, language and fashion and by 1957 it was their music coming out of the radios and the jukeboxes, and their movies that were out-grossing the big block-busters. This exercise of new power was seen by the old guard as a threat to the social fabric of America. They declared war on everything the kids liked, claiming that everything they liked was turning them into juvenile delinquents.

This is the Hardback version of the revised and expanded edition.
Today's science fiction movies are blessed with obscene budgets and have an army of technicians slaving over the special effects. Back in the 1950s, there were one or two guys doing the effects and the budget for the whole movie was $65,000 or less. The movies were made in ten days or less, in black and white, by people working outside of the studio system.
This book takes a light-hearted (and light-headed) look at those movies, as seen through the eyes of the children who saw them and the actors, directors, producers and writers who made them and some of the political and social events that influenced them. It will take you back to the time when there were two-tone cars, gas stations on every corner and doctors who made house calls. And should it tickle a painful memory of an ill-spent afternoon watching the Daughter of Dr. Jekyll or Fire Maidens from Outer Space take solace in the knowledge that Randy Robertson and I saw every one of these silly movies, usually more than once.
