The 10 Most Influential Horror Movies of the 1970s

"Though each passing decade has uniquely changed the face of film, the seventies undeniably sent shockwaves through the cinematic landscape. Movie screens still reverberate today from the aftershocks, and nowhere are the effects felt more profoundly than in the horror genre. The loosening of censorship restraints broke the mold for what could be shown on screen, while a growing audience tolerance for visceral terror unleashed new waves of creativity behind the camera.
These ten films are testaments to the impact that the decade had on movie history – both for individual movies and for broader trends within the industry. Several are timeless masterpieces, while some are better described as shockers which nevertheless left an outsized influence on future films."
