1980’s Horror Films
A list of 80’s horror films that I remember watching when I was growing up in the 80’s. This was meant to be a Top Ten list but I couldn’t narrow it down so thought “meh! just put down what you remembered watching back then”.

would be cool to kind of try and re create that shot in the studio – although cant see anyone letting you use their kids to create a poltergiest image mind!!
Most of the videos are in 80’s which most of it are unknown to me
anyway for some later part I like “wrong turn”
thanks, I’ll wait for your next list.
Nice list, I enjoy films like that though I am always creepy after wards.
The Shining is not just a great horror flick but one of the best films all time. Period.

I think the Horrors of the 80’s really paved the way for what we are seeing in modern cinema horrors…You can beat the original horror movies from the 80’s…
