MCT:April 10, 2008I would rather watch every episode of Oprah while smelling Oprah's sweaty armpit. I would rather vote for Obama or scrape the burnt off of toast. To put it simple, no, this movie will not be watched by me.

MCT:March 4, 2008Certainement le meilleur ducumentaire que j'ai vu sur le cinéma d'horreur. On se pose beaucoup de questions à la suite du visionnement.

MCT:February 12, 2008A good intro to select horror classics of the 70s. The best part of this documentary is that it is padded by interviews with the directors and film-makers. This group of film-makers examines the themes and subtext of their own and their peers' work, and how this greatly affected the path horror film-making took afterwards. Also, you might find a gem you haven't gotten around to yet.

A thought-provoking, well-produced documentary charting America's obsession with the horror movie under the social constraints of the late 1960s and 1970s. It features excellent contributions from all the major players involved with some enlightening and, at times, saddening real life footage from the time. A must-see for genre fans.

An interesting doc that ties in the social events that lead to some of the greatest American horror films of the seventies. For those well versed in the horror genre, there is nothing that new here, but it s a very interesting watch.
