1960's Horror Movies
by Gymnopedies | created - 08 Nov 2018 | updated - 2 days ago | PublicWhat makes the 1960s such an interesting decade for horror films is that—without any build-up or warning from the previous decade—the genre started off so good in 1960 in Eyes Without a Face, Psycho, Peeping Tom and Black Sunday to name a few - that it was too much for most audiences. The more well-known directors made psychological horrors and the Italians and the low-budget exploitation American films made the more bloody efforts.
