The Quirk Books Boardwalk: The Movie Theater

We have a great lineup waiting for you at the movie theater: survival tips for the absolute worst possible disasters in the Worst-Case Scenario Survival Handbook: Apocalypse, a look at more than two dozen of the greatest sports films of all time in Movies with Balls, and a tale of BFFs and demonic possession wrapped up in 80s Beaches nostalgia. (P.S., in addition to the book, that last one is an actual movie you can watch!)
