Horror Smackdown: 1985 Edition

from The Spooky Picture Show · host The Spooky Picture Show

Sharpen your machetes and lace up your boots - because seven blood-soaked maniacs are entering the ring, and only one’s making it out in one piece! In this splatter-soaked showdown, we’re throwing down the horror greats of 1985. Will Freddy’s flamboyant return in A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET 2 slash through the competition? Can THE RETURN OF THE LIVING DEAD punk-rock its way to the top with brains and black comedy? Does FRIGHT NIGHT still charm the stakes off us, or will RE-ANIMATOR bring it back to life with green-glowing guts and glory? DEMONS is out for blood in a possessed theater, DAY OF THE DEAD drags us into the grim end of the world - and FRIDAY THE 13TH PART 5 crashes the party with sleaze, scream queens, and a body count that won’t quit (even if Jason’s technically MIA). Get ready folks; it's about to get Spooky!
