THE DRIVE-IN A B-Movie with Blood and Popcorn, Made in Texas

Matt Godfrey narrates a dark comedy in which a supernatural force invades an all-night horror-movie fest. A group of friends spend the day at the Orbit Drive-In, and as night falls, so does a comet and an endless barricade of goo. Godfrey nails the eccentric group of moviegoers--from the sarcastic to the rage-filled. Circumstances worsen as the sing-songy Popcorn King ushers in a harrowing new era for the denizens of the Orbit Drive-In. The narration ramps up in intensity as the dark side of humanity burbles to the surface. Godfrey's humorous performance complements the novel's rapid-fire pacing as it crescendos into a harrowing fever dream blending horror, thriller, and social commentary.
