Eli Roth’s History of Horror, 10 PM on AMC; 2:11 AM on AMC:

History suggests — and several horror movies confirm — that humanity has the right stuff to survive just about anything from wars to plagues to a zombie apocalypse, but horror fans may have the advantage here, thanks to the survival tips they’ve gleaned from watching such epic flicks as “World War Z,”“zombieland,”“i Am Legend,”“10 Cloverfiel­d Lane” and “Invasion of the Body Snatchers.” The new episode “Apocalypti­c Horror” includes interviews with writers Max Brooks, Bryan Fuller, Edgar Wright and filmmakers Quentin Tarantino and Rob Zombie, among many others.
