Nick Lingris: Πρόσθεσε και το omnibus film στη συλλογή σου
Προσθέτω ακόμα και το anthology film και παραθέτω ένα link που τα αναφέρει σχεδόν όλα:

"Anthology film:
a multi-part or multi-segmented film with a collection or series of various tales or short stories sometimes linked together by some theme or by a 'wrap-around' tale; often the stories are directed by different directors or scripted by various screenwriters, and are in the horror film genre; also known as an episode film or omnibus film; this term may also refer to a full-length, compilation-documentary film of excerpted segments or clips from other films (i.e., That's Entertainment (1974))."
