  1. An American Werewolf in London. This was a truly groundbreaking film from John Landis in 1981. It was the first to incorporate humour into the film and features one of the most convincing transformation scenes ever committed to screen.
  2. The Shining, Another early eighties classic. The slow descent into madness by Jack Nickolsons character is a visual tour de force from Stanley Kubrick and deeply unsettling.
  3. Captain Kronos: Vampire Hunter.  No Horror film festival is complete without at least one entrant from Hammer House of Horror. This is a little known gem which offers some light relief  as it doubles as a bit if a swashbuckler as well.

  1. A Nightmare on Elm Street. Back to the 1980s again with this the very first entrant in the Freddie Kruger saga. Much better than anything that followed it also features a very young Johnny Depp starting to make his first inroads into Hollywood.
  2. Midsommar. Let’s come right up to date with this “Folk Horror” modern classic. It’s the start of Florence Pughs seemingly unstoppable rise to fame and has certainly stayed with you.
