DescriptionKirk Hammett is the lead guitarist of Metallica, one of the most successful and beloved bands in rock history. But even before Hammett assumed the heavy metal mantle, he was a geek for the imaginative universe of horror. From the age of six, the guitarist gathered toys, ephemera, and memorabilia from his favourite films. This generously illustrated book highlights the finest examples of Hammett's personal collection of horror and sci-fi movie posters--an astonishing trove that spans the history of the genre.
