Lot of people complaining that their favorite horror film did not appear in the video. Well it is just impossible. There have been so many horror classics that even a 4 hour documentary wouldn'be enough. Not to mention a 13 minute summary. And what the creator of this video has done is nothing less than remarkable. It traces a general line of development of the genre in broad terms, it is not a discussion of milestones in horror. Excellent job, fantastic.

What a well made video Horror is arguably the most genre of film. So many fantastic directors got their start with horror classics and so many stars have been in horror movies before they were really known. It's a genre thats so easily influenced with trends of film and changes so fast but no horror film really ever gets forgotten. Some horror fans are practically historians when it comes to long-running characters like Dracula, Frankenstein, Invisible Man, Michael Myers, ect. but the horror films even before those are so old that they're pretty much ancient cinema and are archived from the most diehard of cinephiles.

Well done but I would also mention the rise of Asian horror films in 1998-2004 [The Ring, Ju-On, The Eye, Shutter] and James Wan - the most influential horror director of 2010s.

@ethangordon9762 4 года назад

This was really helpful, I'm working on a research paper for my history class and this was a perfect video to take notes from (I'll obviously cite it). It'd be great if you could make another short history video about the horror genre from 2010-present, but I understand it must be a very research-heavy and time-intensive project. It would also be cool to get a short history of different subgenres of horror, I know you made a video about zombies in cinema, but there are a lot of other genres you could cover. Just a suggestion, keep making content dude!

Fantastic overview and so well put together! Definitely gives people a lot of room for greater explanation if anything jumps out of them. I'd only recommend that people also consider checking out Spanish/Mexican/Latin American horror as well. For obvious reasons there wasn't much time to cover that here, but it might be something that could interest people. Nonetheless, there is already much to examine here!

@briand3383 6 лет назад

Bummed you didn't mention AIP/Roger Corman and how drive-ins created an audience for cheap 50s-60s horror. Also, you mentioned the Cold War, but not Godzilla, et al, from Japan. But overall, I'm totally diggin your series. Thank you!

@MK-ft8uk 4 года назад

Left out: The Exorcist had massive influence on Satanist horror. Amityville and the rise of haunted house films. The Shining's massive influence on the respectable horror film along with Silence of the Lambs. Also left out Blair Witch being the first in viral marketing / internet horror. And Cannibal Holocaust was actually first found footage horror

@Maxdewinter123 6 лет назад

Your channel is a labor of love. It is a sad reflection on our degraded tastes as an audience that this channel isn't more popular. But what you do is splendid. Bravo.

@canadianfortrump4057 3 года назад

I'm completely surprised that there was no mention of The Exorcist. I think the vast majority of horror fans would agree that The Exorcist is the most frightening film of all time. It had an emotional effect on people that no horror film before or since has had. Many people were seeing psychiatrists and going back to church after seeing it. Omitting The Exorcist from this video is like showing a video on heavyweight boxers and omitting Muhammad Ali.

@canadianfortrump4057 3 года назад

Correction: There was a very brief mention of The Exorcist. My mistake, but it only lasted about 3 seconds. That's why I missed it the first time. I would have given The Exorcist a much more extensive review.

@thepodbaydoors-amoviepodca4568 5 лет назад

Hi Charlie. Jerry here. You are creating an invaluable body of work here. But I wanted to comment on your take on the horror genre of the 1980s. One extremely important element that was present in horror that you did not touch upon was the idea of overturning the notion of the nuclear family, of ripping the lid off of the idea of the return to the American family that Ronald Reagan was trying to put back into the American bloodstream. There were a number of horror films like like Poltergeist, The Evil Dead, The Stepfather, The Shining, The Entity, Christine, Gremlins, Fright Night, Prom Night that portrayed the idea of the American dream being turned into the American nightmare. Meanwhile others like Child’s Play, Halloween III, The Stuff, They Live and Videodrome, played on the sins of our rank consumerism. There is a lot to be explored here. I would love to hear your thoughts on this.

@butternugget 6 лет назад

Like the review. I love that you have the music from The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari playing. Just one thing, his name is pronounced as Conrad VITE not what you said. (Technically it's FITE in German) But I do love this video

I am very confused when it comes to horrors. I love the taste of fear, I like being scared, unsettled and disgusted by what I see so I watch horrors most of time. I have seen around 400 horror films in my 21 years long life but only a handful of them got me really unsettled...I watch them not because I get scared by every other horror film but because I believe this one could be the next rare one that left me disgusted as Carpenter's The Thing did for example. In recent years the only truly scary horror I have seen was Hereditary. It is masterpiece that comes out once in a decade. All those remakes and sequels are shitty and they are only about jumpscares. So my relationship with horrors is...I love horrors but 95% of them can't get me pee my pants...so I just watch thrillers and crime films instead recently :D
