Conversations with Phantoms : Exclusive Interviews About the 1978 TV Movie, Kiss Meets the Phantom of the Park
Kiss - TV Movie - Book - by Ron Albanese
(2020)
In the late 1970s, the makeup and costumes wearing rock group Kiss conquered American album charts and stormed the nation’s arenas, putting on hundreds of their explosive concerts for their fans, the “Kiss Army.” True rock ’n’ roll superheroes, they also began making inroads in merchandising, such as having their own comic book. The next step was to do some kind of film. Since its first airing in October of 1978, the resulting NBC TV movie Kiss Meets The Phantom of The Park has been overwhelmingly perceived as a hokey misstep in the band’s history. While lamenting what it is not, detractors have forgotten what it is: fun, super ’70s, and vintage Kiss.
Conversations With Phantoms is author and lifelong Kiss fan Ron
Albanese’s deep dive behind the scenes of Kiss Meets The Phantom of The
Park. Thirteen never-before-published interviews plus “Phantom Findings”
comprise an informative and entertaining read, not only for the band’s
followers, but for anyone into 1970s pop culture.
