Just altered the thread title for you now, Walter O.
...Lord of the Flies...
Lord of the Hornets?I've read that one.. it was ok but it left me wanting something more
Lord of the Larva?Lord of the Hornets?
i have watched the movie and have yet to read the book. Next time i go to the library will check and see if they have it.I read Of Mice And Men in school, but can't remember anything about it, all I know of it now is from 11/22/63. I probably never even paid attention to it in school - I didn't like reading then.
Has anyone read H.G Wells' War of the Worlds? I adore Jeff Wayne's musical, and want to read it, I have the ebook but I think it is something I would want to read as a real book, don't know why - just doesn't seem right reading a classic on modern technology.
The one with tom god damn cruise (hate that little prick) that was set in America? I mean, changing the country it is set in is one thing, but casting tom cruise? Nah, sorry, I can't watch that.i have watched the movie and have yet to read the book. Next time i go to the library will check and see if they have it.
Don't let the language scare you... It's only English!I've been putting off reading classic novels for years because they sound good but I don't want to be confused by the language.
These are the books I've been thinking of getting..
a Tale of two Cities
Great Expectations
Frankenstien
Picture of Dorian gray
I was kind of put off by classics because the first classic I ever read was Moby Dick. which was the most boring book I've ever read.
any other classics that people like? they don't have to be strictly horror I was going to change that in the title of the thread and forgot.
...more horrifying YET!...Lord of the Dance!......Lord of the Larva?
Yepper- seperated at birth!!!...who looks, come to think of it, like Mike Reno from Loverboy....
H.G. Wells had so many great books. Loved the time machine too.I read Of Mice And Men in school, but can't remember anything about it, all I know of it now is from 11/22/63. I probably never even paid attention to it in school - I didn't like reading then.

which ones have you read?
I think I've only read Dracula and the Inferno and I'm thinking about getting Fankenstein. Maybe Picture of Dorian grey.
what are some other good ones?
Wow, I hadn't thought about that book in years! That was a messed up story....I know it's not considered a horror novel but I would include The Pearl by Steinbeck. What a horrible, horrible story and novel!
On a whim, I went in search of a cheap used copy online and found this cheaper than most single war of the worlds books.H.G. Wells had so many great books. Loved the time machine too.
The best movie adaption of War of the Worlds is the Night that Panicked America. It's not about the book. It's about the radio broadcast. I absolutely love the scene of the butler with a cigar.
