The Ultimate Retrospective on Italian Horror Cinema
Nightmare Industry tells the story of a small army of Italian filmmakers who helped shape the horror genre as we know it today. Boisterously challenging America’s dominant grasp on global cinema, their work pushed boundaries both technically and morally! From Gothic horror to the carnal violence of Gialli and the gut-munching terrors that followed in their wake, Italian horror cinema dominated the world market and Nightmare Industry will expose how these much-loved filmmakers made them, acquiring a legion of loyal fans as they went. This is a wild story of rivalries, heartbreak and compromises that transcend cinema and explores how a band of dedicated filmmakers changed the shape of horror forever.
