| | | | 70s Horror Movies (What would you suggest)
Sign in to disble this ad
I am a huge fan of horror movies. But the new horror movies do not cut it. In the bast four years all three video stores in my small town have gone out of business. I have been really getting into 70s horror movies. So far my favorites are....When a stranger calls, The last house on the left, and Race with the devil.
Lately I have been buying the movies from Ebay, and I would like to hear what you'd suggest.

Also recommend- It's Alive. Lady has a mutant baby.

Also Poltergeist - though that may have been 80's.
I'd put The Omen in there too, if only for the Rottweilers.

Anyway not mentioned I think are:
Halloween, Zombie Flesh Eaters, I Spit On Your Grave, Rabid, Shivers, Who Can Kill A Child
Also check out creepy BBC TV series the Stone Tapes!
p.s. Pieces was pretty shite.

It features Marilyn Chambers in the lead role when she tried to be a "real" actress. Even so, it is a late 70s horror flick to check out and directed by David Cronenberg.
Here are a few more to check out
Motel Hell (came out in 1980)
Count Yorga, Vampire
The Return of Count Yorga.
The Abominable Dr. Phibes
Dr. Phibes Rises Again
Andy Warhol's Frankenstein (also called Flesh for Frankenstein)
Andy Warhol's Dracula (also called Blood For Dracula)
Theatre of Blood
The Monster Club
Blacula
Scream Blacula Scream

The director was taken to court to prove he didn't actually murder anyone during the film's making. It's still very disturbing.
