Marshall is the one that pulled me in (he was kind of a "manager" for me back then -- 74-76)

Do ya'all remember "Westworld" with Yul Brynner? Don't know if that classifies as horror, but I remember thinking it was a pretty cool, edge-of-your-seat movie back in the day.

Here are some forgotten horror classics that are highly rated by horror film buffs on IMDB.

Don't Look Now (1973)

Don't Look Now is a 1973 thriller film directed by Nicolas Roeg.

The Asphyx (1973)

Hugo is a brilliant turn-of-the-century scientist-loved and respected by his family and friends, admired by his colleagues. But he is a man quickly becoming obsessed with a curious and frightening question... what is the mysterious apparition found in the photographs of his dying subjects? Hugo brings to a family boating party his newest invention-a motion picture camera. The party quickly turns into a disaster as he captures on film the tragic drowning of his wife and son. When the film is replayed later, the same ghostlike presence appears. It flies towards his son, and vanishes inside his dying body. Has Hugo discovered The Asphyx, the spirit of the dead described in Greek mythology? A spirit which lives in constant agony, not finding rest until it takes possession of a human body? Could the spirit, if captured, become the key to immortality? Hugo is compelled to find the answers. It is a ghoulish search, with eternally haunting results.

Here are a bunch of old horror films I see on YouTube that look good. I don't have time to provide descriptions or titles, but the title of the movies should appear in the video thumbnail images below. I can't believe how many films there are that I've never heard of. lol

Check out these sick horror films called Sleepaway Camp, where a shy girl named Angela kills a ton of teens and kids, each one in a gruesome creative manner that looks so fake. It's so bad that it's good. A very morbid entertainment. I can't believe that back in the 80's, they could get away with showing kids getting killed one by one like that, whereas nowadays, it's too politically incorrect to show that in horror films.

In the first film, she's just a shy quiet teen. In the second, she's a camp counselor. The second one has a lot of nudity and sex scenes, but the uploader blackened them out, unfortunately. In the third one, she comes back and poses as a troubled inner city youth. I don't know what the fourth one is about though, but it's called "Return to Sleepaway Camp". Here they are in chronological order. The second film is in 8 parts though.

Ok I just saw some of these Halloween films. They are entertaining but annoying at the same time.

Here's what ticks me off.

Why is it that people in horror movies do the dumbest and most senseless things?

The police are always useless in horror movies and totally incompetent. Since they are not the heroes or protagonists, they don't get to be the ones who finish off the evil villain, so they always have to get distracted and be out of the way, or they get killed off too.

When dozens of people are killed in slasher movies, the few incompetent policemen around do nothing but get in the way or try to dismiss everything. They never think to call the national guard no matter how many are getting killed.

The cops in the Halloween and Friday the 13th films are dumber than dumb. Totally useless too. All they do is get in the way. Or get killed off.

Why is it that no one in horror movies knows how to turn on a light switch inside a building at night? Why do they always sit and walk around in the dark, even when doing normal routine tasks? That's very unsafe, esp in a public building. Do they not know what a light switch is? That's so cliched and annoying.

Why is it that no one knows how to lock a door in horror movies? In slasher movies, the killer gets into every house by simply opening the door, even when the residents know that there's a killer roaming around. Do locks not exist in horror movies?

Furthermore, killers in slasher movies seem to be able to teleport and walk like Kung Fu masters. They can appear out of nowhere, or be miles away and then suddenly appear out of nowhere. They can also walk up behind any character with no sound from their footsteps, like Kung Fu masters.

They also seem to be everywhere at once.

After a while, this gets too predictable and cliched.
