Here's a fun compilation of various horror films from the 1970's-

The 70's is probably my favorite decade for horror, even the cheesier ones are more entertaining than some of the stuff getting released in the theaters today.

Beyond The Door will always have a soft spot for me, it terrified me as a kid, even more so than The Exorcist.

Some of the films in the compilation are available in those Mill Creek 50 Movie DVD sets like Pure Terror, and Chilling Classics.

The Other- Another one that creeped me out as a kid, the book it's based on is excellent too. An early film appearance by the late John Ritter.

The Baby- One of the stranger horror flicks to come out of the 70's.

Only one that really stands out for me is the trailer for Last House On The Left. Where it keeps reminding the audience "it's not real...it's only a movie"...haha.

My older sisters saw it on the big screen during one of it's re releases in the 70's, I always remember them telling me about how the guy sitting behind them threw up.

Great decade for horror, even the made for TV movies were as good as the theatrical ones. Salem's Lot terrified me as a kid, I watched it in the basement family room alone when it premiered, and I would turn the channel when it got too scary haha.

Snuff- A film that could only be made in South America, where life is CHEAP!

One of the biggest film disappointments- as kids we thought this was really based on a true story, or even maybe they actually did capture this on film. This was long before the Internet where you could go on and look up all of the info you need. The film itself was hard to find, so we could only imagine what it was like- we'd seen clips and the trailer on compilation VHS's.

Years later when the film finally became available, we HAD seen the best moments in the clips and trailer. The film as a whole was just plain dull. And come to find out it wasn't based on or inspired by anything. Of course this isn't the first horror film to say it's based on true events, even though it isn't. But at least films like Texas Chainsaw Massacre actually live up to their reputation, and for TCM at least it was inspired by something that really happened(though nothing that ever happened in Texas).

I didn't link the trailer as it had nudity- but it's on youtube: Snuff (1976)
