This is the definitive reference book on the Horror film. The third volume of The Aurum Film Encyclopedia, it contains critical entries, each complete with a plot synopsis on nearly 2000 horror films from early classics like Nosferatu to more contemporary classics like Silence Of The Lambs. The first book to be fully international in scope, it includes films from Japan, Mexico, Iceland, Australia, India and many other countries as well as from North America and Western Europe. It also lists the top-grossing horror films, the most-filmed horror books and full statistical information on the genre. With nearly 500 black-and-white stills this is the most thorough catalogue of its genre ever published. The essential work on the subject.

Comprehensive, authoritative and clearly presented, this is the guide for anyone interested in the genre, from the professional and the serious student of film to the general reader and home video buyer.
