The 101 Scariest Horror Movie Moments of All Time started out with a bang as it included some of the most iconic scary movies of all time. The first eleven films were filled with well-known names such as Tobe Hooper, Mario Bava and Alfred Hitchcock. That doesn’t mean there’s nothing for the rest of the series, as episode two immediately shows.
The episode opens with one of the most talked about horror directors and what is arguably his most polarizing film. It’s a great start as it will be instantly familiar to most viewers and immediately spark conversation. The point of any countdown is to promote conversation, and this entry is sure to do the trick. The interviews during the segment are also very interesting.
