Weird Horror and Other B-Grade Tales — Carl Hose
The B designation in entertainment usually comes with a less-than-positive connotation. B-grade movies are typically low-budget affairs with poor acting and cheesy plots; the B-side of a record was always an album cut used as filler to back the A-side hit single. The B stuff is the stuff that doesn't quite make the grade.
That isn't always the case, though. Some B movies, after late-night viewing with a bucket of popcorn, turn out to be pretty cool cult classics; sometimes the B-side of a record becomes a bigger hit than the intended single.
Some of the stories here are cheesy, some are funny, and some are a little of both. Some of the stories are so bad they're good. Stories featuring a killer spud, ghosts, things that slither underground, a thing that creeps through the woods, another that lives in the basement, a disturbed environmental activist, a government bent on moral control, a slasher, supernatural romance, and an out-of-whack elevator are some of the situations you'll encounter should you decide to take a walk on the B-side.
