This film is amazing in that it manages to feature interview with literally everybody of any importance in the genre of Modern Horror. Adam Simon has put together something very special for fans of the genre. The film traces the origins of Modern Horror through its early classics, featuring films such as Last House On The Left, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Night Of The Living Dead and Dawn Of The Dead and through interviews with all the key players and then some. I tend to find that documentary films, while interesting, often fail to be really gripping, thought provoking and at the same time entertaining. This film manages all three. Thoroughly recommended for fans of the genre and also for anyone with a passing interest in horror. And for those of you that bash films such as Last House On The Left for being too extreme, watch this documentary, it might just change your mind.
