10 Top 80s Horror Films On Netflix: Relive the Classics
Video stores are unfortunately a thing of the past, but that just means it’s now easier (and cheaper) than ever to watch any movie you want at any time you want to watch it. Because though the brick and mortar shops are gone, services like Netflix have seen the rise of what I like to call virtual video shops.
From the comfort of your home, and often for only a few dollars, you can rent and watch both classic films as well as new gems just waiting to be discovered, and we oftentimes take for granted how easy life has become for us movie lovers – after all, does anyone reading this actually miss LATE FEES?!
If you’re looking to discover new favorite horror movies on Netflix, we’ve got you covered with our list of the 20 Top Horror Films currently streaming on the service. But if you’re looking to revisit some of the genre’s classics, well, that’s what we’re here to talk about today.
Horror experienced a true golden period in the 1980s, when slasher maniacs roamed free and the gore wasn’t computer-generated. The 80s gave us some of the very best horror films of all time, and no matter how many times you watch some of those movies, they simply never get old.
So let’s revisit some of those gems by checking out 10 of the top 80s horror films that you can watch on Netflix RIGHT NOW!

Exclusive Sneak Peek: Eli Roth and Crypt TV’s VR Series ‘The Faceless Lady’ Episode Five
Eli Roth (Cabin Fever) and Crypt TV are knocking it out of the park with their new VR show, The Faceless Lady. For those unaware, this is the first fully scripted VR horror show on the market.
Even for masters of horror like Eli Roth and Crypt TV, this is a monumental undertaking. However, if I trust anyone to change the way that we experience horror, it would be these two legends.
Ripped from the pages of Irish folklore, The Faceless Lady tells the story of a tragic spirit cursed to wander the halls of her castle for all of eternity. However, when three young couples are invited to the castle for a series of games, their fates may soon change.
So far, the story has provided horror fans with a gripping game of life or death that doesn’t look as if it will slow down in episode five. Luckily, we have an exclusive clip that may be able to satiate your appetites until the new premiere.
Airing on 4/25 at 5pmPT/8pmET, episode five follows our final three contestants in this wicked game. As the stakes are raised ever higher, will Ella be able to fully awaken her connection with Lady Margaret?
The newest episode can be found on Meta Quest TV. If you haven’t already, follow this link to subscribe to the series. Make sure to check out the new clip below.

‘Blink Twice’ Trailer Presents a Thrilling Mystery in Paradise
A new trailer for the movie formerly known as Pussy Island just dropped and it has us intrigued. Now with the more restrained title, Blink Twice, this Zoë Kravitz-directed black comedy is set to land in theaters on August 23.
The film is packed with stars including Channing Tatum, Naomi Ackie, Alia Shawkat, Simon Rex, Adria Arjona, Haley Joel Osment, Christian Slater, Kyle MacLachlan, and Geena Davis.
The trailer feels like a Benoit Blanc mystery; people are invited to a secluded location and disappear one by one, leaving one guest to figure out what is going on.
In the film, a billionaire named Slater King (Channing Tatum) invites a waitress named Frida (Naomi Ackie) to his private island, “It’s paradise. Wild nights blend into sun-soaked days and everyone’s having a great time. No one wants this trip to end, but as strange things start to happen, Frida begins to question her reality. There is something wrong with this place. She’ll have to uncover the truth if she wants to make it out of this party alive.”
