Also known as Body Snatchers and The Horror Star, Frightmare is a 1983 horror movie notable for being the screen debut of the legendary actor, Jeffery Combs.
Horror Movie Review: Mausoleum (1983)
Idiotic, silly but so entertaining, Mausoleum is cheesy 80’s horror at its finest or its worst depending on your point of view. Its plot is utter nonsense but it embraces the absurd in a tale of demonic possession that is the opposite scale to likes of The Exorcist.
Horror Movie Review: Curtains (1983)
The mess of production and re-shoots that spanned three years is evident throughout Curtains. It doesn’t feel like a complete movie, instead a mix of scenes pasted together making for a disjointed watch. It’s a mess but it is surprisingly compelling.
Horror Movie Review: The Being (1983)
Written and directed by Jackie Kong and starring Martin Landau, José Ferrer, Bill Osco and Dorothy Malone. The Being is a 1983 creature feature/horror film set in Pottsville, Idaho where the citizens begin to disappear.
