Product Description

On the outskirts of town, the Fairfield Starlight Drive-In waits silently in the dark. A long time ago the giant movie screen flickered with life, showing technicolor westerns, murky mobster flicks and monster movies, but not anymore. Now the giant screen is overgrown with vines while rows of rusted speakers line the barren field like grave markers.

Jonathan Drake often wonders what it would have been like to see his favorite old horror movies on the big screen. He and his friends visit the Starlight Drive-In often. They wander around the dark, overgrown field, remembering their favorite scenes from horror movies and reciting lines by heart.

Then Jon hears a strange noise, like the hiss and pop of an old movie. They watch in shock as the speakers begin to shake and a beam of light leaps from the projection booth on to the screen.

Jon and his friends are about to make their scream debut in a special feature . . . a real creature feature . . .

and their roles are to die for.

Customer Reviews

stuck in the movies
The title of the book I read is Creature Features. The first thing that happened in my story is four boys named Simon, Nate, Albert, and Jon go into an old run down drive-in theatre. Then the boys started playing with the projector and get sucked into the films. They have to run away from monsters. Simon somehow gets zapped out when switching to a different movie. Simon can't just turn off the projector because when ever you touch it, it shocks you. The ending was one of the major reasons why I didn't like the book. The ending was Simon just unplugged the projector. Then the three other kids just fall out of the screen but the monsters fall out too and in a movie length of time the monsters just disappeared. The author should have explained why the projector shocked him and I think the author should have put more thought in to the ending. I rated this book a 2 out of 5 stars.

This book is the bomb.
It has details that would make you feel like your are apart of them.I like the end when everything comes out of the bigf screen. They also chose the best horror movies of the old ones.They used the boys in the book to explain so well what everything looked,felt,smelled,and tasted down to the bone.
