The 50 Best Horror Movies of the 1980s

"Ah, the '80s. There are fantastic horror films from nearly every year since cinema began, but for many fans, the genre's output doesn't get any better than it did in the '80s. The rise of practical effects and the artistry on display from masters like Rick Baker, Rob Bottin, Stan Winston, Screaming Mad George, and others played a big role, but equally important was the sense of fun that infused horror movies. Plenty of serious, soul-crushing horrors were released in the '80s too, but the decade really saw the genre find an interest in delivering pure entertainment too."
