With an average IMDb score of 6.2 from over 32 horror movies released in 1988 you could say it was actually a pretty good year for horror movies. Sure there were some duds (Ghoulies II, Zombi 3), but we also got some real gems like The Vanishing (1988) and They Live (1988) to name just a few. As horror fans we've come to expect a wide ranging degree of quality from our vice but in 1988 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 1988 - Top 10 Horror Movies ranked by Amazon.
