A pocket book from Apple Press in a series of “101 movies you must see” books. My library has all of them so I felt like creating a list for this one. I may do the cult movies book next. Listed in the order they are presented in the book (earliest to newest). Altho I can’t seem to add Fritz Lang’s M so only 100 for now. For the record, I’ve logged 91 of the 100.
These lists are rarely perfect and this one is no exception. Not including THE THING is a huge omission that most would agree. ALIEN is another that should be here but I’m guessing they felt that that was more sci-fi but we all know it’s a slasher on a spaceship. Also interesting choice to select Evil Dead II over the original. Otherwise this is a decent Horror 101 list.
