It Came From the North: 10 Great Monster Movies From Canada

"While Canadian cinema is sometimes difficult to discern from productions from the USA, many cinephiles are able to point to the nuances that highlight the differences between the two. Canada has produced some of its own horror icons, with such huge names as David Cronenberg and Bob Clark, the latter credited in making the first slasher film with Black Christmas. As a result, Canada has a rich history in the horror genre, perhaps backed by the long winters gearing creators to be inspired by the sense of isolation that can come with extreme temperatures. Out of the cold corners of the country, it can be said that one subgenre in which Canadian horror thrives is in creature features. Zombies, werewolves, and aliens (to name just a few) have all been the subject of some truly horrific experiences from The Great White North."
