About this product
Product Information
Made on a low budget, The Terminator was one of the most influential films of the 1980s. Combining explosive special effects and an intricate time-travel plot, it set Arnold Schwarzenegger on the road to superstardom and allowed its director, James Cameron, to go on to make some of the most expensive films of all time. The Terminator quickly found a cult following who appreciated its deadpan humour, comic-book violence and elaborate variations on standard science fiction themes. Resolutely populist, accomplished and instantly memorable, The Terminator has dramatically outlived its humble beginnings. Sean French's insightful study traces the film's production history, its sources and the extent of its influence. He argues that The Terminator 's visual flair, stylised acting and choreographed violence are so compelling not so much because they offer intellectual rewards but because they traffic in the darker, more visceral pleasures of moviegoing. In his foreword to this new edition, Sean French reflects on Terminator sequels and reboots, suggesting that the original film has more in common with the gritty visions of the New Hollywood than present-day action blockbusters.

Beware. Seller listed the book as a hardcover with description and picture consistent with the 1992 1st printing version of book. They mailed me the softcover HBO Miniseries version printed in the 2000's which can be bought for less than $5 on ebay. There listing is false advertisement. As a used softcover it is overpriced. They continue to sell this book on ebay as a hardcover in more listings. I asked twice for them to send me hardcover and they just offer to give refund. Very Disappointed
