Amazing show that introduced me to new movies to add to my watchlist. Very informative and perfect for anyone who loves horror documentaries.
Its fun but shudder has done better with these kinda docs. I like most the experts and directors involved. But a few of them are a drag and could really use a replacement. Sorry but if you have only directed a bad shudder orignal or you only serve purpose to lecture the audience with points of view about a partiular a race why are you here? Also 5 episode season? Kinda ridiculous.
So the second series was as good as the first. Very impressive and lots to enjoy. Works both as a reminder to revisit films you forgot about and recommends films you need to see. In addition you are presented with a lot of insight which while not always illuminating, does enough to pique you're interest. Keep them coming.
From Dusk til Dawn is my fav horrorcom.
I love all the Shudder docs. So many films that I’ve forgotten about or have never seen. Can’t wait till shudder’s library expands with many of these hidden gems
