CHECK OUT ALL OUR EPISODES OF ’80s HORROR MEMORIES HERE!
Last month, JoBlo.com launched a new weekly documentary series called 80s Horror Memories, and the first five episodes of the series were all dedicated to film that were released in 1980: Maniac, Dressed to Kill, Alligator, Friday the 13th, The Shining, Prom Night, and The Fog. Episode 6 takes us into 1981, which is known as the slasher craze. Since slashers is my favorite horror subgenre, ’81 was an amazing year. The YouTube channel JoBlo Horror Originals will release new episodes of 80s Horror Memories every Monday. Here’s some info about 80s Horror Memories :
It has been over 40 years since the decade that shaped horror movie industry started. Having lived through those years myself, we at JoBlo/Arrow In The Head decided to create a 10 part documentary series that not only covers every nook and crevice of the biggest horror themes between 1980 and 1989 but also what happened in the world at that time. Join us on a trip down Horror Memory Lane. 1981 was the year that at least 30 slashers were released. We didn’t have a killer that would stand the test of time, but we did have a few notables which were not given the credit they deserved. Today on 80’s Horror Memories, we take a look at The Funhouse, The Burning, Friday the 13th Part 2, and
My Bloody Valentine.This episode of 80s Horror Memories was written by Mike Conway, narrated by Tyler Nichols, edited by Mike Conway, produced by Berge Garabedian and John Fallon, co-produced by Mike Conway and Adam Walton, and executive produced by Berge Garabedian.
