This filmography covers more than 300 horror films released from 1990 through 1999. The horror genre's trends and cliches are connected to social and cultural phenomena, such as Y2K fears and the Los Angeles riots. Popular films were about serial killers, aliens, conspiracies, and sinister "interlopers," new monsters who shambled their way into havoc. Each of the films is discussed at length with detailed credits and critical commentary. There are six appendices: 1990s cliches and conventions, 1990s hall of fame, memorable ad lines, movie references in Scream, 1990s horrors vs. The X-Files, and the decade's ten best. Fully indexed, 224 photographs.

easy-to-use resource on horror films as well as pop culture of the decadeBooklist Muir is probably the best-known, if not the best authority on contemporary horror films, and this latest edition in his ongoing series will be a welcome addition to the library of any fan of the genre...the body of each entry is devoted to Muirs excellent commentary. Highly recommendedChoice Muirs writing is entertaining as well as informative, and will enable you to revisit each of your favorites with a somewhat different perspective than usual...a high-quality, hard-backed book...will give you hours and hours of enjoyment, as you revisit your memories of this decade, and revisit the films afterwards. RecommendedThe Thunder Child Film guides like Muirs are indispensable and better than IMDb or Wikipedia.Nightmarish Conjurings an invaluable research book that horror fans NEED on their shelvesDread Central an entertaining collection and definitely provides insight into a number of films that all but the most dedicated horror fan may have missedJournal of the Fantastic in the Arts.
