Ripped to Shreds - Trade Paperback
RIPPED TO SHREDS - The Lost 80s Slasher!
RIPPED TO SHREDS is an oversized, full-color graphic novel that faithfully adapts Michael Johnson's infamous 'Lost Slasher' screenplay from 1980.
Originally scheduled to begin shooting in December of that year, RIPPED TO SHREDS unfortunately lost funding and never got made. Now, at long last, fans of 80s slashers can see what might have been. Painstakingly period-accurate, with a studied reverence for the era and a "cast" featuring legacy horror actors Russell Todd and Lauren-Marie Taylor from Friday the 13th Part 2, RIPPED TO SHREDS strives to recreate the experience of watching a classic 80s slasher film... in comic book form!
176-Page, 8.5x11 softcover edition. Adapted by writer Scott Alan Gregory and artist Thiago Motta.
