Testers Opinion.. "A quad speed CD-ROM is recommended to keep
                  the audio visual clips spooling off the CD without
                  glitches. 
                    This first volume deals with making your gory special
                  effects, such as how to fool your audience into thinking
                  you've cut your arm open with a Stanley knife, pulled 
                  your eye out of it's socket and performed surgery on a
                  live semi-bionic hand.
                    These effects are demonstrated in two video clips which
                  play directly from the CD and even though there's not 
                  much definition in the small window, they're both convincing
                  enough to make you want to watch the tutorials that follow.
                  These are a series of slideshows with sampled voice-overs
                  and take a kind of Blue Peter style approach, making use
                  of common household objects and other props.
                    Budding horror movie makers will find this a fascinating
                  and entertaining source of advice and tips."
