Written in 1971 by Richard Matheson, the book would spawn a film feature and a comic book miniseries with illustrations by Simon Fraser and adapted by Ian Edgington.
The film script was written by Richard Matheson and directed by John Hough who was influential in the Hammer Horror films of the 1960/70’s. The film was made by American International (famous for the Poe series starring Vincent Price). The film stars Clive Revill, Gloria Hunnicutt, Pamela Franklin and Roddy McDowall. The film upon release was given a lukewarm review from critics but since that time, it is now considered a classic and has made it to top ten all time horror films.
Dialogue samplers from the film have been used by Anaal Nathrath, Skinny Puppy and Orbital.
