This was WAY more enjoyable and fun then it had any right to be. It's a short story collection so not every story is a winner but the wide majority are offering many alternate perspectives upon CHUD with a wider array of settings then one would expect.

Worth checking out if you are a CHUD superfan or if you're just a weirdo who is unable to make sensible reading choices...LIKE ME! 

Rewatch the movie before reading this, it'll well worth it.
