If you've seen the films, no need to see this.
If you haven't seen the films, this will hardly inspire you.
Donald Pleasance and Nancy Allen narrate a documentary on fear using classic horror movie clips as a backing. Decent idea, it just DIDN'T WORK.
Hearing Pleasance cheer Jamie Lee Curtis on during the Halloween clips was kind of funny though.
They also showed a handful of horror comedies from years gone by. Abbot & Costello and Martin & Lewis made cameos.
And I never saw Vice Squad or Nighthawks as horror films. I did like the scenes though. And the movies were good too. They aren't horror however.
And Frogs made me laugh.
I saw this in a theater in New Jersey in 1984 and had a good time. I saw it on video in 2005 and noticed it hasn't aged well.
Dated badly, but it might still be a curiosity piece.
