GENERATION EVIL

Horror films of the '80s

An episode from the series THE BLOODY DECADE

Synopsis

The '80s saw the emergence of a generation of artists who gave horror cinema its bloody letters of nobility.

John Carpenter, Joe Dante, Mick Garris, and many others were able to tap into their brilliant inspirations in a decade where genre cinema rhymed with freedom.

From "Friday the 13th" to "Poltergeist," through "Suspiria" or "Evil Dead," they tell us how they made films that are still engraved in our imagination.
