"Underrated horror movies can draw from several different wells. This can be a difficult category to define, depending upon how many or how few horror movies the person has seen. The 1987 slasher Slaughterhouse, for instance, definitely has its fans. They'll make the argument that it doesn't get enough appreciation, while others may point out that it's for the most part a pretty standard 80s slasher. Who gets to be right?
No one, really. Truly underrated horror movies should generally offer something that really would appeal to more people than it currently does, if only the circumstances were more favorable. That's why this look at the most underrated horror movies is going to assume the people reading this have seen a few horror movies but know there's so much more out there."
