A History Of Horror - 2010 - 6/10

Three part documentary on cinematic Horror.
1930’s Universal, Hammer in the ‘60’s, knives in the 80’s.
Mark Gatiss chats with historians, surviving relics, and filmmakers.
There are detours throughout, such as the Val Lewton films of the 40’s, Euro Horror that paralleled the blood drenched Hammer productions, and major studio releases of the 70’s.
I knew every single one of the films referenced, as will most readers of this forum.
A nice introduction, but no undiscovered ground.
