The three episodes, "Frankenstein Goes To Hollywood", "Home Counties Horror" and "The American Scream" take us from the 1920's to the 1970s taking in the likes of Lon Chaney, Bela Lugosi, Boris Karloff, Peter Cushing, Christopher Lee, Vincent Price, George Romero, John Carpenter and Tobe Hooper and exploring key movies such as the 1931 Dracula and the 1958 one, Blood on Satan's Claw, The Wicker Man, Night of the Living Dead and The Exorcist.
There is, perhaps, little new information here for horror devotees but as an introduction and an overview to the genre it's hard to beat and Gatiss is always an engaging host.
