Review of The 50 Best Horror Movies You've Never Seen

Another weak horror documentary that mainly focuses on relatively well known horror, even hugely popular horror films. No Mario Bava, Dario Argento, Lucia Fulci, Norman J. Warren or Pete Walker films get a mention, hidden cult classics. I could imagine as these are popular directors for horror fans why these wouldn't be mentioned but considering the largely well known movies listed it seems like this was just a poorly produced list, even though P.J. Soles is always wonderful. The real kick in the teeth was hearing someone describe Trilogy of Terror (1975) as one of the earliest anthology horror films when Dead of Night (1945) was the true kick off when it comes to horror anthologies/portmanteaus which then led to many Amicus produced anthology films - Dr Terror's House of Horrors (1965), Torture Garden (1967), The House that Dripped Blood (1971), Tales from the Crypt (1972), Asylum (1972), Vault of Horror (1973), From Beyond the Grave (1974) all prior to the weak Trilogy of Terror. A really sloppy documentary with questionable choices, if you are already a fan of horror you won't find anything new here and if you're new to horror this is a terrible place to start.
