Three decades later, Hollywood is pushing for a big budget reboot. The man who played “The Thin Kid” is the only surviving cast member. As his memories flood back in, the boundaries between reality and film, past and present start to blur. But he’s going to help remake the film, even if it means navigating a world of cynical producers, egomaniacal directors, and surreal fan conventions — demons of the past be damned.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eHardcover:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 288\u003c\/span\u003e pages\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e William Morrow\u003c\/span\u003e (April 27, 2025)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 978-0063446137\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul type=\"disc\"\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Tremblay, Paul","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46515754598651,"sku":null,"price":30.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0078\/1906\/7459\/files\/HorrorMovie_3D_Indie.png?v=1744200119"},{"product_id":"another-1","title":"Another","description":"\u003cp\u003eAward-winning,\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/em\u003e bestselling adult horror author Paul Tremblay has written a stunning, unsettling middle grade debut, in which a lonely boy watches while an unexpected and strange new friend slowly takes over his life and family.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e“All the questions we ask as kids about who we are and what we’re worth take a terrifying turn in this spooky tale of a sinister, inhuman imposter and the nightmares he brings.
