Review of The American Nightmare (2000) by Bob O — 12 Feb 2008
A nice little IFC documentary which aired in October, 2000. It examines horror pictures from the 1960s(NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD) & the 1970s(LAST HOUSE ON THE LEFT, TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE, SHIVERS, HALLOWEEN, & DAWN OF THE DEAD) and how they reflected the types of true horror that was going on in those periods.
Features some great interviews with: John Landis, Tom Savini, Wes Craven, Tobe Hooper, David Cronenberg, John Carpenter, George A. Romero, and some writers and professors. Though, for some strange reason, I still CANNOT figure out why there is a black strap-on dildo hanging up in Carpenterâ??s house! See it.
