Robert Bloch

I just read Pyscho not long ago. I haven't read any of his other books, but I really liked this.

Hey Jester, good to see you here mon! I have never read Bloch. Could you compare him to any other authors for me? I have been kinda skepticle about his stuff for some reason, I just cant define. :wacko:

I've read mainly Bloch short stories. They are good solid chillers, and most of what I read are in the TWILIGHT ZONE, ALFRED HITCHCOCK PRESENTS vein, which of course is a good thing.

As for the novels, I have read a Jack the Ripper novel he did a few years back, I believe it was called NIGHT OF THE RIPPER. A good, quick read that had some surprising historical accuracy.

I have always wondered how the novel PSYCHO (or PSYCHO II for that matter) differs from the movie. :huh:

I will check out Night of the Ripper. Psycho doesn't differ too much from book to movie, I did like both a lot.

I'm not sure who I could compair Bloch to off the top of my head. Let me think about that one.
