if there aren't even 30 quality horror flicks in the 1970s, then would seem that even the 2000s and 2010s have it beat, let alone the 80s. i don't think that's the case, but just going by what you guys are saying.

This conversation made me think of this -

“Ah you think darkness is your ally? You merely adopted the dark. I was born in it, molded by it. I didn't see the light until I was already a man, by then it was nothing to me but blinding!”
