Horrible!

I must first say I am a huge Jack Ketchum fan. Read all his books and "Ladies' Night" was the last one.After two chapters I was lost. I even had to look up his book on Amazon and Barnes and Noble to see if maybe it was a short story book or if it really was meant to be a complete story.By the...

The lethal sex

Ladies' Night trades on a fundamental male fear: namely, what if the women in our lives suddenly turned on us? Ketchum answers that question in typically brutal fashion, positing a scenario wherein New York City becomes a battleground in the ongoing war of the sexes.The story begins when a...

The Mantis Syndrome

Over fifteen years in the making, Ketchum's Ladies Night is a fun, fast paced read. This was originally supposed to be his second book, following Off Season in 1981, under the title The Mantis Syndrome (obvious title when you read the book) and was 400 pages long. He trimmed it over the years and...

Ladies' Night Indeed....

Ketchum pretty much re-hashes "Night of the Living Dead," except it's women who are transformed into homicidal, cannibalistic, zombie-like killing machines (although the Z-word never appears in the book) who are out to kill everything with a pair of testicles after a strange chemical spill in...

Bloodsoaked splatter extravaganza

LADIES NIGHT might not be the most original horror novella, that's for sure, but undoubtable a highly enjoyable splatter epic for gore hounds. Yes, the story is derivative. Author Jack KETCHUM himself admits it in the introduction and freely cites SHIVERS, Canadian horror auteur David...

Zombie Cat Fight gone wild, lock up your sons!

I am a fan of the horror genre, and this is quite an extreme example; but with a refreshing approach. It is the women who are effected by a strange toxic spill, not only causing them to become violent but also loosing their real selves in the process. Kind of like horny, hungry female zombies....

horrible

I'm a big fan of extreme horror, but this is the pits. It is invariably poorly written, and I'm amazed this novel made it to the press. What's worse, the text is rife with typos. Just another indication that just because you get published doesn't mean you can write worth a damn.

Pretty good but way to short

This book is very underdeveloped. The characters never really have time to grow, and in the end you care little what happens to them. And the thing is that this book was originally 400 pages, and included a much larger back story, but was trimmed down for sake of pacing (all in the...
