Description
It's 1959 in a rural Indiana town, and the local drive-in is hosting their first-ever Dusk Til Dawn Spooktacular!
And they've got a Percepto surprise in store for the audience, complete with vomit bags, nurses on staff, and a hearse parked just beneath the monsters onscreen.
But June has a strange sense about things. Always has. And as the screams spread through the parking lot, reality and theatrics begin to blur for her and her friends. Is it just a gimmick, or is something lurking amongst the moviegoers?
Advance Praise
“The book you are about to read is a cinephile’s spine-tingling fever dream. Haley Newlin pens a love letter to celluloid, capturing the grain and gimmicks of a bygone era where the blood seeps right off the screen and into your book. William Castle would be proud... and you’ll be absolutely terrified.”
-Clay McLeod Chapman, author of Wake Up and Open Your Eyes
“Like a mad scientist from the films of yore, Haley Newlin has crafted a delightfully deranged spectacle on the page with The Film You Are About to See. You’ll never want to leave this blood-soaked drive-in... but the creepy thing in your backseat won’t let you anyway.” -Brian McAuley, author of Breathe In, Bleed Out and Curse of the Reaper
