Rarely has a book by a Hollywood player . . . been so confessional and recklessly revealing. . . . This compelling look behind the curtain should help dispel forever any fond illusions about the 'magic' of movies."<br><i>--Kirkus Reviews</i> <p/>"Few books capture the roller-coaster ride of trying to get a movie made as enjoyably as this one."<br>--Roger Avary, cowriter, <i>Pulp Fiction</i> <p/>"Fast, funny and horrifically honest, this is Hollywood from the locusts' point of view, shot through a jeweled and compounded eye. . . . A terrific book."<br>--Alan Moore, author, <i>The Watchmen</i> and <i>V for Vendetta</i> <p/>"Drugs! Sex! Madness! Movie Stars! <i>Killer Instinct</i> is a screamingly funny, seriously terrifying saga of two naifs who outfox the psychotic dons who run the film business. . . . With this book, Jane Hamsher elevates the Hollywood tell-all to a literary art form."<br>--Jerry Stahl, author, <i>Permanent Midnight</i> <p/>"Fax and copy machines are working overtime in Hollywood with galleys of <i>Killer Instinct</i>. . . . Gossipy . . . [and] filled with wicked wit. . . . Hamsher's gonzo take on <i>NBK</i>'s evolution offers an insider's view of show-biz egos."<br><i>--Time</i><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Jane Hamsher is a Hollywood producer currently based at Columbia Pictures.
