With an average IMDb score of 6.2 from over 10 horror movies released in 1970 you could say it was actually a pretty good year for horror movies. Sure there were some duds (Horror of the Blood Monsters, Mark of the Devil), but we also got some real gems like An Evening of Edgar Allan Poe (1970) and The Bird with the Crystal Plumage (1970) to name just a few. As horror fans we've come to expect a wide ranging degree of quality from our vice but in 1970 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 1970 - Top 5 Horror Movies ranked by IMDb.
