"This useful overview of British horror films condenses 100 years of celluloid fright into 100 key works and 180 photos...This book will likely prove popular with a wide readership...British film historian Rigby's fine prose is lively and assured. His evaluative comments are worthwhile, and his recounting of historical developments is both accessible and informative. Fans will appreciate his attention to detail, while casual readers will benefit from his skilled survey." - Library Journal
