Rue-Morgue Magazine has become the go-to magazine for all things horror. Recently, the fine folks dished out a book with 200 alternative horror films they think we all need to see. I use the word alternative in italics because it must be remembered that taste will always be a matter of perspective. For some people, they will have seen every film on this list and feel disappointed, and for many, they'll have never heard of a single title and find this book to be a great investment. Regardless of whether or not you've seen 0 or 200 of the films included in this book, I consider this a must-have book for any horror fan. The book is loaded with beautiful pictures and color reproduction of over 190 movie posters. Each film mentioned is packed with a brief synopsis and all of the technical information you'd need if you ever choose to track it down. Featuring foreign films, classic films, and the forgotten sequels of beloved franchises, Rue-Morgue did a bang up job at covering all of their bases.
