While there’s nothing better than taking a trip to your local cinema to eagerly consume the latest in big-screen horror film - especially with the genre having served up so many great offerings in more recent years - there have been times when the small screen has played host to some truly terrifying horror pictures.

The term made-for-TV is one that may instantly scream low budget, low effort, and low quality to some, but that doesn’t always have to be the case. For horror fans, the decades have seen the world of TV serve up plenty of fantastic movies - and that’s what the focus is on here.

And for those wondering, Tommy Lee Wallace’s 1990 take on It isn’t included here. While that is a fantastic adaptation of Stephen King’s source material, led by a magnetic, majestic, maniacal Tim Curry, Wallace’s It is technically a two-part miniseries rather than an outright TV movie, per se.

So, with all of that in mind then, here are ten TV horror movies absolutely worth going out of your way to track down…

• Body Bags
• The Norliss Tapes
• Hotline
• The Curse Of The Blair Witch
• Psycho IV: The Beginning
• Ghostwatch
• Stalking Laura
• The Baby’s Room
• Someone’s Watching Me
• Ring (1995)
