The Night of the Creeps Novelization

by Christian Francis

Released for the 40th anniversary, The Night of the Creeps Novelization is just as bizarre, genre-bending, and downright awesome as the movie itself!

When an alien experiment unleashes a deadly parasite on an unsuspecting Planet Earth, the dead begin to rise as the living become their prey. With the outbreak spiraling out of control, a pair of students and a hard-boiled detective must race to stop this invasion before it’s too late.

Packed with all the sci-fi wonder and thrilling horror, The Night of the Creeps Novelization captures the spirit of Fred Dekker’s beloved cult classic, while expanding upon its story in exciting new ways.

[David Adams · Rating 4 out of 5]

I was lucky enough to read a wide selection of Christian's novelisations in a short space of time, and this stood out amongst them as some of the more weird and yet fantastic ones. Christian has the ability to just turn what was likely a terrible movie into a well structured, often funny and definitely disgusting novel. He really is the master at this and I recommend his books every chance I get.

Slugs that eat your brain and turns you into a zombie. Exploding heads. This novelization is full of chaos. I haven't seen the movie but will be on the lookout for it.
