Is horror a man’s world? You might assume so – but you won’t be thinking that way for long once you investigate the vast contribution women have made to horror movies for well over a century. In 2020, award-winning Australian critic Alexandra Heller-Nicholas released the definitive book on the subject: 1000 Women in Horror, 1895–2018, an encyclopaedic work celebrating the many women – filmmakers, actors, producers and technicians – who have shaped the genre since the moment cinema’s light first flickered.

The documentary functions as a captivating visual encyclopedia, structuring a vast layer of film history. The directorial approach makes academic material accessible, blending archival footage, interviews, and graphics.

Anyone ready for a revision of the horror canon will discover dozens of overlooked pioneers. What lingers after viewing is a fundamentally expanded understanding of the genre. — MovieFinder Editorial
