    Underrated horror films from the 80's

    I figured this would be a good way find out about some people's underrated gems of the 80's and maybe hear a few that I may not have given a chance to.

    Here are a few of mine:
    -House
    -Waxwork
    -The Vanishing (1988 not crappy remake)
    -Sleepaway Camp II: Unhappy Campers
    -The Hidden
    -The Pit
    -From Beyond

    The Pit is a great under rated movie! Good call! Same thing with From Beyond

    House isn't really under rated...it's pretty popular seeing as it has at least 3 sequals
    Waxwork is pretty craptastic.

    Some of my underrated pics:
    Black Roses
    C.H.U.D.
    Humanoids from the Deep
    Deadly Spawn

    Didn't really care for Slaughterhouse. It was just...eh.

    Black Roses is horrible, so is the Pit.

    Waxwork is an incredibly popular film amongst horror fans. So i'm not sure what you guya are talking about there. From Beyond is also pupular as everyone loves Barbra Crampton in bondage gear. Some horror n00bs in this thread :shakehead

    Superstition and Dead & Buried are underrated, not many people have even seen them. You could also throw Body Melt and Brain Damage (Henlotter's) on the underrated list aswell.

    I liked Scarecrows. Definitely an underrated film in my book.

    Motel Hell was alright. There were a few things I liked about the movie and some things I didn't. It's really a toss up.
