True Terror of "Get together"

Every thing you ever wanted to know about women coagulating in living monochrome is in this book. The book goes thru 100 years and many genres of what would be considered "Girl Gangs" on film. Naturally, these are the finer films such as "Chopper Chicks in Zombietown". Then when you think it can sing no lower there are films as "Westside Story" (1961) and "Grease (1978)." There is a table of contents as they try to separate the films into such groups as "Women in Prison" and "Girl's Schools." There is a comprehensive bibliography for those intrigued by this book. And despite the hundreds of film titles in the index there is still sufficient room between the stills to describe the finer points on what is the essence of girl gangs. This book is part of a great series "Creation Cinema Collection" be sure to find the others such as "Fragments of Fear: an illustrated History of British Horror Films."
