Bleeding Skull's 50 Best Trash-Horror Films of the 1980s - Page 2

Bleeding Skull's list description: Cocaine. The Eighties wouldn't have happened without it. This was the sleazy, frenetic era of 24-hour parties, teased hair, trashy lingerie, and false metal. It was a time when filmmakers picked up cameras to translate their coke-fueled visions to the screen, without irony, self-awareness, or even experience. The Eighties gave us some of the most iconic horror films to come out of studios, but it also gave us an endless treasure of amateur work that often eclipsed their big-budget brothers. And that's what this list is all about. The DIY ethos and sincerity of films like Hallucinations, Slumber Party Massacre, and Tales from the Quadead Zone proved how much you could do with so little. The goopy homemade effects of Basket Case, Slime City, and Rock 'n' Roll Nightmare showed that you didn't need a several million dollars to bring bloodthirsty beasties to life. The Bleeding Skull! team brings you our 50 favorite trash-horror films from the 1980s...
