With an average IMDb score of 6.5 from over 17 horror movies released in 1984 you could say it was actually a pretty good year for horror movies. Sure there were some duds (Ghoulies, Children of the Corn), but we also got some real gems like Strangler vs. Strangler (1984) and Threads (1984) to name just a few. As horror fans we've come to expect a wide ranging degree of quality from our vice but in 1984 we did pretty good.So grab some snacks and a drink (and maybe something to hide behind) and check out reviews, ratings and trailers for the 1984 - Top 10 Horror Movies ranked by Metacritic.
