In 1996 a 26 episode documentary series hosted by the horror legend Christopher Lee aired. Mr. Lee takes us on a journey through the years of horror films covering everything from Universal Monster movies, the B horror movies to the Hammer horror movies an everything in between. In this series Mr. Lee gives us some behind the scenes information from some of our favorite films. We even get to peek behind the curtain and see the actors joking around and hilarious outtakes. There is even times we get to hear horror legends such as Karloff and Lugosi speak about the films that made them famous. What an amazing cool series this truly is!
