If you love horror with a little extra cheese on top, 1986 might be one of the most glorious years the genre ever produced. Tonight, we’re digging into five low-budget cult favorites that prove horror and comedy have always made a deliciously messy combination.
When Stephen King stepped behind the camera, he unleashed a full-throttle apocalypse where machines turn homicidal. Killer trucks, AC/DC, and pure chaos—this is ‘80s excess at its loudest and wildest.
NIGHT OF THE CREEPS
Fred Dekker blends aliens, zombies, and slashers into one wildly entertaining cult classic. It’s funny, gooey, and endlessly quotable—just remember to “thrill me.” (Blu-ray Review HERE)
CHOPPING MALL
Jim Wynorski turns a suburban mall into a neon death trap as killer security robots go haywire. Laser blasts, big hair, and after-hours carnage make this a perfect slice of ‘80s horror cheese.
TERRORVISION
Ted Nicolau delivers a goo-soaked blast of Charles Band/Empire weirdness as a suburban TV dish invites an alien nightmare into the living room. Loud, gross, and gloriously ridiculous, it’s peak midnight-movie insanity.
KILLER PARTY
Canuxploitation veteran William Fruet starts with college pranks before swerving into supernatural slasher territory. The tonal whiplash is half the fun in this strange and scrappy ‘80s oddity.
So jump in the time machine with our awesome panel of 1980s enthusiasts (Anish Jethmalani, Tim Palace, Dave James Parker, Larry Sternshein) and head back 40 years to a time when practical effects ruled, VHS boxes promised outrageous thrills, and filmmakers weren’t afraid to mix genuine scares with a wink and a grin.
