The
ghost movie... While monster movies and creature features have evolved
significantly over time, supernatural/paranormal horror has, to a much
more significant extent, remained unchanged. Though there are clear
differences in ghost films from the 80s vs. those of previous decades,
supernatural horror has always relied on psychological elements, which
generally focus more on that which is not (or cannot) be seen rather
than displaying overtly grotesque imagery. On a personal level, I've
never been much of a fan of psychological horror (or supernatural
horror), hence why I've taken a while to release a list detailing them.
However, I realize that they're quite popular with a lot of people. As
such, I've thrown together a list of ghost/supernatural/haunting films
of the 1980s. Enjoy and let me know if I need to add more to the list!
