Fantastic stuff and a great price. Grindhouse Volume 1 is very no-nonsense, it knows what its doing and it gives it to you straight. The intro (trailers?) section does a tremendous job to map out how everything is put together, which is really appreciated by the busy/lazy Keeper, who just wants to get to putting their players through the grinder. The preamble also does well to show an awareness that everything below can and should be plundered, pillaged, ripped apart and put back together for your own use, which is an absolute foundation to good module writing. The content warning is comprehensive and mature. No spoilers but the scenarios themselves are very nice, with clear inspiration coming from The Things We Leave Behind, and Fear’s Sharp Little Needles, but with a tremendous amount of time, care, and Devil’s details that ‘Fear’s’ scenarios could not supply for obvious reasons. A really nice job has been done to differentiate between two games (in terms of style and mood) that otherwise have a lot of commonality. The design is simple but effective, the almost modern-day but not quite time-period is a nice niche, and the book certainly reaffirms all the worst things I have heard about the 70s and 80s. This is just a reader’s review, but the read being so quick and easy has been all the more encouraging for me to arrange my own Double -Feature screening as soon as I can.
