Status Updates From Resurrection Dreams

This chapter I just finished was extreme horror with bludgeon tools and intimidating sharp knives. Our savvy villain falls for Vicki's seduction gambit and Melvin acknowledges culpability in the death of Pollack. She is a decent actress and Melvin is ready to believe (an important factor in his dubious acceptance of her words of caring and attraction for him. What happens later is a shock I did not see coming.

Really entertaining read about nerve shattering horrors interlaced with Laymon's humor. I gotta say I am really enjoying this plotline. It is outrageous, sometimes original, but consistently intriguing. Please also see notes on Discussion Thread BR Splatterpunk.

Like Laymon's style and this selection really hits the spot with me! Suspense, chilling scenes, LOL moments amidst horrible situations. This outing permits the reader to enjoy a slower but satisfying pace with fewer alternating POVs. I like the main characters and the outlandish plot with its crazy-as-a-loon fiend at the helm. This Laymon title is a Buddy Read on Splatterpunk Book Club.

Genuinely enjoying this story of Laymon's. Likeable protagonist in Vicki..Nice pacing with the plotline. And I like the creepy mad scientist Melvin who has some extreme sexual fantasies tied to his playing with black magic to perform resurrection of his murder victims. I think.his creep quotient continues to increase.

The storyline starting out like gangbusters and introduces an especially repugnant and lethal murderer. The first explicit kill scene for a Laymon novel in my experience with his works to date was particularly clinical and chilling. First impressions of this outing with Laymon.is positive.
