I added all 5. Thanks.

There's loads of British ones, and those from the '70s are generally the best examples:

Dead Of Night
Dr. Terror's House Of Horrors
The House That Dripped Blood
Tales From The Crypt
Asylum
The Vault Of Horror
Torture Garden
From Beyond The Grave
The Monster Club
Tales That Witness Madness
The Uncanny
Screamtime

You might want to change the title to 'Anthology' or 'Portmanteau' movies though, as it's not too clear what sort of collection it is at the moment.

Thanks a lot, I'll add them later. I forgot "The Monster Club" the other I haven't heard of.
