My introduction to Horror TV
7 titles |
Public
As a 70's baby & fulltime 80's kid who has always been obsessed with horror in these times it was blooming on television. Shows like these scared me as I'd become acquainted with the thrill of it all there was no turning back. Not all of these ended well (a scary lesson a scared stiff snot nose tyke to learn) sometimes the bad guy wins. Not all were scary but all inspired my sense of wonder. I'd venture into horror films a bit but were restricted from all the R's by parents. I'd first watch all of my favorite flicks edited for tv but for the few hours between when mom and pops retired to the bedroom and the for the living room tv to give me a reason to leap on and and off the bed. Starting with the basics as it started out we only had the 3 channels (Later 4 with a uhf loop) before progressing to cable tv,vhs,premium channels(occasionally Dad liked free trials from telemarketers)This list is TV HORROR (My Roots)

The Hitchhiker (1983)
A childhood favorite

The Hitchhiker, a man of mystery traveling the land and being the Rod Sterling of the 1980's introducing stories that have great twists. I love HBO's first series that titillated and terrified. Great writing and one of the eeriest theme songs of all time.
