Back in 2009, my buddy Nafa and I decided to start working on Fauxrror 2. Instead of a collection of tracks of fake horror movie scores (like the first Fauxrror), we decided to focus the album to only be about just one fake film. And that's how Laserdead came to be. The information we provided for the production and plot is ridiculously detailed and contradictory (maybe on purpose). And the music is just bizarre. So here it is in all of its strangeness. The album is only a dollar (feel free to pay more, I can't stop you!) and comes with posters like the one you see here and a PDF called A Brief History of Laserdead by yours truly. Proceeds from this will support Doomed Moviethon and Hello! This is the Doomed Show.

Been Sickly

Hey gang. I've been out sick from the world lately but fear not, I am recovering. Nothing that a little laparoscopic surgery can't fix! The only thing I've accomplished lately is putting editing this new episode of the Doomed Show. Jeffrey and I talked at length about Monster Dog from 1984 and friend of the show, Markky Karloff, made a cameo appearance. The film stars Alice Cooper and is directed by Mr. Troll 2 himself, Claudio Fragasso. So yeah, it's crazy.

Unseen By Me Horror Films Of The 1980s

It's with a wee bit of shame that I post this. There are definitely some titles on here that I think folks will consider must-see. I can handle the shame because part of my inspiration for putting this post together is so that I have a reminder to look into these must-sees. I used both IMDB and Wikipedia to make this lists so if there are incorrect years and non-horror movies on here, that's their problem! This isn't a complete list of horror films from these years by any means and you may notice a lack of Bollywood, Hong Kong, and some other countries' horror output missing from this list. I love horror films from all over the world but there's no way that I could have been 100% completist with this post.

I also cut a whole mess of titles that were just insanely obscure. I normally love the insanely obscure but once I hit 1988, I had to reel it in somehow. Thanks to the VHS boom, horror movies grew exponentially every frickin' year from 1980 to 1989. They exploded so much that I almost gave up when I got to the latter half of the 80s. Hopefully, there aren't too many egregious omissions on my part. Help me track those hard-to-find obscurities down in the comments, dear reader! Researching this list has been richly rewarding. Have I seen it all? Oh dear God no. I have a lot of homework to do. So anyway, here are the films from each year of the 1980s that I haven't seen... yet!
