Film-makers, performers, genre authorities and selected high-profile fans count down the most chilling moments in cinematic history. Not just from horror films, but from such thrillers as
Seule dans la nuit (1967) and
Les Dents de la mer (1975) and such science-fiction films as
Terminator (1984) and
L'Invasion des profanateurs de sépultures (1956). This entertaining and authoritative special, originally telecast for 5 nights leading up to Halloween 2004, has gone beyond seasonal programming to become one of the Bravo cable network's most popular and oft-encored specials.
