Fear in the Dark

1991 NR 1h 6.4

For those who don't understand the appeal of horror movies believe the genre has nothing to offer audiences. However, the 1991 TV documentary "Fear In The Dark" might make some naysayers into horror believers.

Multiple directors-including Dario Argento, John Carpenter, and William Friedkin-present their theories about why horror films are so powerful and memorable. They discuss their own work, of course, but also provide commentary on the horror movie world as a whole. However, Fear In The Dark isn't just a discourse between directors. The film also features Psycho author Robert Bloch and psychologist Dr. Glenn Wilson, who contribute unique perspectives outside the directorial sphere.
