Film4, in conjunction with FrightFest, felt that it was time to take stock of the century in horror cinema as it currently stands in 2015. We pulled together a longlist of great titles from the year 2000 to now and sent it out to a panel of experts to vote on, resulting in a fascinating, inspiring and no doubt controversial Must-See Top 50. Let the arguments commence!
