Each one-hour episode will take viewers on a trip of how horror has evolved through the years and its impact on society.

Roth said of the series:

“I’m thrilled to be part of this incredible series. For years, I’ve wanted to create a definitive ‘History of Horror,’ a living record of the genre with interviews from all the greats, old and new. Sadly, we lose more of these masters every year and with them go their stories and experiences. This show will serve as a record for future generations — fans and filmmakers alike — to enjoy. I could not be prouder to create this with AMC.”

AMC Visionaries is a year-round documentary series in which artists present to you the untold stories and fascinating histories of their respective genres.
