Talking heads, some billed as Directors, trying very hard to be overly cool, while presenting 50 movies that pretty much every horror fan has already seen. This is beyond a cash grab. It's a glorified YouTube video, only with worse production values (Literally everyone is filmed in front of a green screen in someone's office...). They should have featured some of the films these "Director" presenters did, because THOSE were films I'd never heard of... You'd be better shoving bamboo under your fingernails than watching this thing.

I was shocked, SHOCKED, that Peter Jackson's Dead Alive aka Braindead was not included here (he also did Heavenly Creatures). This brilliant gem is much less known than Repulsion, Audition or Let the Right One In. An early Del Toro like Chronos might have been nice too. What about the brilliant Ghost Watch, or Angst, or The Other? I guess I could go on. The choices were also overwhelmingly 'white' and North American, but there were a few that I had not heard of that I definitely want to check out.

The main issue regarding this documentary is the title "The 50 Best Horror Movies You've Never Seen". Most of the movies are well known and if you are a horror buff you've probably watched most of them. The doc should be called "The 50 Best Horror Movies You Have to See" or just "50 Horror Movies You Have to See". Though I don't agree with every movie in the list, it's a good list.

50 of the best horror movies you have never seen---not quite. Some of these were good movies others were not. The reviewing panel loved every aspect of every movie. Hence , an informercial more so than a documentary. Every one of the panelists had an involvement with one or more of the films so they are a biased group. Often talking just to hear their own voices. One line sticks out. "The character is a fourteen year old girl a preteen girl." Didn't make sense even on a second viewing. That being said it is a good reminder of some older movies you might want to watch. I wrote down three titles to watch and two that I want to look up for more info. and maybe watch. This show did answer one question for me. Colin Hanks is Tom Hanks son, I thought he was his younger brother.

Instead of watching a documentary ABOUT the films you SHOULD watch, why not actually WATCH THOSE FILMS? And, if you've seen these films, why are you even watching this dreck? Oy vey!

So I started to watch this and about after the 4th movie they named I stopped it and tried looking up the rest of the list. Luckily a person on here has written a review with all 50 titles so I suggest going to look for his review instead of wasting your time watching this. If you are a fan or horror movies there is a very small chance you will hear anything new on this that you haven't either already seen or heard of. The fact that black Christmas is #1 is ridiculous that movie is very well known in the horror community even more so now that 2 remakes have been made recently one as new as 2018. They have movies like Halloween 3 on here and pumpkinhead at #2. This must of been made for some tv show or something for vh1 don't waste your time it's over 2 hours long just find the list on here.

1) The title needs to be taken at face value. It's not a list of the 50 best horrors you've never heard of, or the 50 best horrors period. It's the 50 best horrors you haven't seen. 2) Clearly some people are going to have seen many or even most of these movies. In the Internet Age, it's pretty much impossible to find gems that nobody has seen. The title is a bit of puffery, but a reasonable viewer should accept that it's meant to convey a certain set of parameters, not )a literal description. 3) It's clearly aimed at people who aren't voracious horror fans. Voracious horror fans can certainly enjoy it for the discussion possibilities (rankings. what got left out, what were you pleasantly surprised to see, etc) but the basic aim of the show is to discuss horror that isn't Halloween/TCM/Saw/Poltergeist/etc. So they're offering alternatives to the ones most everyone can name even if they haven't seen any of them. This is a valid and useful service being offered. Horror (or any genre, for that matter) fans have to remember that there's a big old world out there, and most of it doesn't share your drive to learn all you can about your genre. It's perfectly okay to reach out to the casual fans too, and teach them a little more about horror films.

Don't watch this if you're expecting to see why the movies listed are on this list. They don't give you the jump scares, or the eerie sensations that the movies listed do. It's just their list that you have to check out on your own.
