Have you read Horror Movie Freak?
 

There is this book called Horror Movie Freak that is basically a list of hundreds of different horror movies divided into sub-genres written by Don Sumner. Many of the movies receive one-page descriptions. There are quite a number of horror movies discused and it is a great guide, if you want to discover the best of the horror movie world. Additionally, the author is also among others who run the website besthorrormovies.com. I bought the book a year ago and read it relatively quickly. If you have not read it, you should consider buying it and if you have you can say here (if you haven't you can comment here too).

Pretty poorly put together, from what I read on Amazon.

I'm not entirely sure what you mean? I personally thought the book was really good and there are quite a few interesting reccomendations. Also, the people who made it are experts on horror films and run a the well-known website besthorrormovies.com.

Now this particular book is more if you are looking for horror films that you may have missed (at least I did). As some of the reviews mentioned, there is not much scholarly analysis, but the book itself is pretty entertaining. I really enjoyed it.
