Third film in this series and you wonder just how bad things are going to get.

Star Crystal (1986)
Micro budget 1980s Alien clone takes an unexpected turn two-thirds of the way through.
Aug 10


Q, The Winged Serpent (1982)
Giant pterodactyl-like Aztec god descends on New York in this memorable albeit plodding 80s monster movie.
Aug 4


Psycho II (1983)
One of the most underrated sequels of all time. It's only problem is that it isn't the original.
Aug 1


Silent Night, Deadly Night (1984)
The ultimate Santa slasher caused quite a stir when it was released in 1984.
Aug 1


The Burning (1981)
One of the slasher genre's best 80s offerings features some gruesome effects and is genuinely unsettling.
Jul 31


Howling II (1985)
A terrible sequel which is so terrible that it becomes superb. Christopher Lee said it was the worst film he ever starred in.
Jul 29


Halloween 5: The Revenge of Michael Myers (1989)
Quick cash-in on the success of the fourth part is symptomatic of everything the series would begin to do wrong going forward.
