I Have to Return Some Video Tapes

I went into this book with preconceptions based on having seen the movie. I experienced a roller-coaster of emotions listening to this book which ranged from fascination and laughter to absolute utter disgust. The authors attention to detail is jaw dropping, The narrator does a fantastic job and I could visualise these words being spoken by Christian Bale which is not a bad thing as he played the part so well on screen.

The screen adaptation was a very stripped down version of this book but good in its own right, I only wish they left a few scenes in like the urinal cake scene which had me laughing out loud. if you have a seriously twisted sense of humour and tolerance for highly descriptive violence then this book will blow you away or damage you or both, enjoy.

Not well read words are actually mispronounced. It’s difficult to distinguish characters. It’s poorly directed.

Brilliant horror story

This book has always been a cult classic favourite but the brilliant voice acting by Nick Landrum really elevated the experience to a whole new level. He really leaned into the characterisation and I applaud him

Cult classic with superb voice acting
