About the Author



Joe Bob Briggs is the world's foremost drive-in movie critic. His wisecracking take on B-movies was featured on two long-running late-night television shows, first on The Movie Channel and then on TNT. That tradition continues with his latest series, The Last Drive-In, currently featured on AMC's Shudder streaming platform.

Briggs is also a successful investigative journalist, actor, and author. His nine books include Iron Joe Bob (1992) and Profoundly Disturbing: Shocking Movies that Changed History (2003).

He has appeared in several movies, including Casino, Face/Off, and Great Balls of Fire, and continues to be a regular host and Master of Ceremonies at film festivals, drive-ins, movie theaters, and conventions around the country.

Briggs hosted Joe Bob's Drive-In Theater for eleven years on The Movie Channel and MonsterVision for five years on TNT. During the course of his hosting career, he has executive-produced 20,000 hours of television and become the leading authority on exploitation and genre films. In 2018, The Last Drive-In with Joe Bob Briggs broke the Internet and is now in its 7th season on Shudder.
