Imagine a jam-packed drive-in on a Saturday night. You're kicking back in your car with the popcorn and enjoying a good old-fashioned scary monster movie when, suddenly, the drive-in itself becomes the movie, with all its attendance thrills. And dangers. When a group of friends decided to spend a day at the world's largest Drive-In theater horror fest, they expected to see tons of bloody murders, rampaging madmen, and mayhem—but only on the screen. As a mysterious force traps all the patrons inside the Drive-In, the worst in humanity comes out. Filled with Lansdale's razor whit and black humor, The Drive-In is a darkly humorous masterpiece!

The alien invasion of a drive-in movie theatre in Texas leads to an outrageous space-bound adventure that is destined to get stranger and more violent all the time

The wild and weird wonders of the Drive-In world continue in this third volume, The Drive-In: The Bus Tour. If you thought the first two books in the series were wacky, this one moves into a whole new realm of whacked and confused. Floods of Biblical proportions. A catfish that would swallow Jonah's whale. Horrid creatures almost as evil as man, and a look at the very machinery of the Drive-In Cosmos, and beyond. This is Joe R. Lansdale at his ironic best, dissecting humanity with a scalpel and a chainsaw. And then it all gets the hammer. The Drive-in, a B Movie with Blood and Popcorn, first published in the eighties, was a milestone for horror fiction as satire, and influenced writers in many genres, from horror to science fiction to fantasy to humor to the literary novel of the strange. Here's your chance to leap back into Lansdale's classic universe and take a whirl on the amusement rides of one of this generation's most unusual novelistic minds.

Immaginate il più grande drive­in mai esistito: l'Orbit. Siamo in Texas, è un venerdì sera e l'Orbit è stipato di gente che sgomita per popcorn e coca­cola, pregustando la Grande Nottata Horror. Ma sul più bello, il drive­in stesso si trasforma in un film dell'orrore: gli spettatori diventano gli involontari ed esterrefatti protagonisti di un incubo orchestrato dal mostruoso Re del Popcorn, sintesi delle peggiori conseguenze dell'ossessione al consumo. E se in "Drive­in 2" vediamo i personaggi sopravvissuti aggirarsi in un paesaggio irriconoscibile, "La notte del drive-in 3" ci catapulterà definitivamente in un microcosmo ancora più delirante, un mondo di misteriose e inclassificabili meraviglie, in cui ci si imbatte in inondazioni di proporzioni bibliche, in un pesce gatto che aspira a ingoiarsi la balena di Giona e in una schiera di creature oscure, di una malvagità paragonabile solo a quella dell'essere umano al suo peggio.
