Most horror fans agree that the horror genre was absolutely glorious in the 1980s, with new iconic villains being created left and right and gory, practical effects-driven mayhem exploding all over the screen. There’s a reason so many films of today hearken back to the ’80s, and that reason is quite simply because the ’80s were an absolutely magical time for horror.
Now in development, the documentary In Search of Darkness shines the spotlight entirely on ’80s horror, teased this week with a kickass trailer and an awesome piece of poster art.
The team previews…
“The 1980’s exploded onto our screens in a veritable feast of blood, sweat, and chills. Madmen, killers, and evil spirits mingled with aliens, demons and cursed dolls; horrific images burnt directly onto our retinas and etched permanently into our brains.”
“For the first time in Horror history, In Search of Darkness will bring together 80’s icons, modern horror greats, popular YouTubers and Social Media Influencers to create the most complete retrospective documentary of the genre ever made. Together, they will bring their unique perspectives as we take a nostalgic journey back to revisit the unforgettable heroes, monsters, and movies that thrilled and chilled us.”
