As we saw the rise of the PG13 chopped down from an R style of horror the films themselves all got real, real bland. Not much in the way of visuals or gore or really much of anything.

Ancient astronauts and alien robot pods that needed body parts. What's not to love about Moontrap. I tried rewatching it a while ago, but it doesn't hold the same magic of my original viewings as a kid. Always thought it was a neat idea though.

Yeah, same. As a kid the high points were high enough (hospital zombie robot lasers) for it to be memorable along with an overall cool idea but going back to it the whole thing is pretty dull.

I remember watching Pumpkinhead with a buddy of mine, for a while after buddy would randomly start laughing and say “whaddaya here for, Ed Harley?” in a fairly decent impression of that witch.

Didn't Wes Craven do Shocker where Deputy Chief Skinner comes back for revenge after he was sent to the chair, but he uses electricity to get you?

Electricity, items that use electricity, whatever. I haven't watched that movie in forever, forgot about that scene. I don't even remember the premise really other than we somehow becomes an electrical ghost or something, and is out for revenge.

976 Evil 2 zaps a character in to It's a Wonderful Life using a couple full minutes of that footage before blending it with Night of the Living Dead having zombified George Bailey's daughter Zuzu kill the girl with a trowel.
I feel bad for kids today growing up with shit like The Bye Bye Man and Unfollowed.

I used to love watching WPIX, WGN, WWOR, and other stations back as a kid. They used to play anything on the weekends. You'd have Halloween or Friday the 13th marathons during the day, it was wicked. I saw movies like They Live with Roddy Piper, but then they played another of his movies: Hell Comes to Frogtown.
As long as they censored out some of the language and sex scenes, channels gave zero fucks back then lol.

The midnight horror movie was a staple as a kid. Hell Comes to Frog Town was a classic. Sam Hell was their to fuck shit up. A Boy and His Dog is another great apocalyptic B movie, as is Steel Dawn with St.Swayze, patron saint of bouncers. Hell, Def-con 4 was another classic, had really cool box art on the VHS tape as well.
