Review: Shitshow by Chris Panatier

August 11, 2025 by Eleni A.E. Leave a Comment

The author describes this story as for fans of the “horror movies of the 1980s and 1990s that were green lit by studio executives who were snorting their lunches”, and suffice it to say that is a most perfect description. However, I’ll go one step further and say that, to me, this book felt like the raw poignancy and cursed carnival vibes of del Toro’s Nightmare Alley meets a Courage the Cowardly Dog episode, in all its macabre, gory, occasionally psychedelic, and darkly humorous glory
