Horror Europa with Mark Gatiss

Actor and writer Mark Gatiss takes viewers on a spine-tingling exploration of European horror films, beginning with the eerie silent films of German Expressionism in the 1920s. He then delves into the world of Belgian lesbian vampire films of the 1970s, examines the black-gloved murderers of Italy’s giallo genre, and explores the spectral tales set against the backdrop of the Spanish Civil War. Gatiss ultimately uncovers how the tumultuous events of Europe’s 20th century shaped its innovative horror cinema tradition.
