Interesting that Scott Jacoby went from playing <i>Bad Ronald</i> to starring opposite Jodie Foster two years later as her champion in <i>The Little Girl Who Lives Down the Lane</i>.

I've read Jack Vance's works for decades. Great stuff! John, Subterranean Press has been reprinting Vance's non-SF novels. BAD RONALD should be reprinted in the next omnibus volume.Georgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04546161337366365635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2728909293998777391.post-17856047846468408012013-05-31T07:34:59.865-07:002013-05-31T07:34:59.865-07:00I'd love to read it if I could only find a cop...I'd love to read it if I could only find a copy I can afford! BAD RONALD is one of the most absurdly overpriced collectible cult books I know of. $50, $60, $80, $95... for a 1970s paperback? And the hardcover is out of the ball park. I remember the movie from my teen years and thought it beyond creepy. It was talked about for weeks after it was on TV. "Bad Ronald" even became a taunt and an insult in the lunchroom and on the bus.J F Norrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06473487417479127354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2728909293998777391.post-2648733294801267572013-05-31T00:17:32.839-07:002013-05-31T00:17:32.839-07:00Thansk very much for this Jerry - I've read on...Thansk very much for this Jerry - I've read only a handful of Vance's books (mainly the Queen books and some of the short stories) but this sounds great (and I love Bloch so that's a great touchstone) - definitely want to get a copy (and see the movies too) - cheers.<br /><br />SergioAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
