So recently, horror-movies.ca took on a list of the ten best horror-themed anthology TV shows. This is probably a decent idea as there were plenty of them, and some much better than others. In fact, the only real problem anyone can have with the list was that The Twilight Zone was not included due to it being mostly science fiction with a smidge of supernatural goings-on thrown in for variety. Ostensibly, this is also why similar show The Outer Limits was not included.

And of course, there will be plenty that disagree with the ordering. Putting Tales From the Darkside, George Romero’s classic series of horror TV ahead of longtime fan favorite Tales From The Crypt is a ballsy move to say the least. Putting Masters of Horror at number six was probably not a bad idea given that only the first season was any good.

But frankly, I find it something of a shame that The Twilight Zone wasn’t included. After all, let’s be honest—science fiction is something of a bastard cousin to horror, and plenty of sci-fi titles can be scary too.

No matter how you feel about the list, you can still give some love to the downtrodden sci-fi movie genre by playing the trivia on Kwanzoo.
