These areas are all extremely well documented but depending on what
information you need:  David Kalat (of All Day Entertainment, the uber-hip
people doing Ulmer and Mabuse DVDs) wrote a very thorough book on Godzilla;
Tom Weaver, who's done numerous interview books on all sorts of 40s/50s B
horror/sf as well as commentary for the Universal horror DVDs; Tim Lucas of
Video Watchdog; Glenn Erickson of DVD Savant; David Skal; etc.
