0:10.2

What is up, you spooky bitches? Welcome back to another episode of the Hello Sydney podcast, a podcast for horror lovers

0:21.5

where we talk about any and all things horror. It's me, your host, Sydney. If you listened

0:26.0

in last week, we talked about 70s horror and this week we're going to be talking about 80s

0:30.6

horror and let me tell you guys, it was way harder to narrow down my top 10 80s horror movies

0:35.9

than it was my top 10 70s. And like, I'm pretty sure I said last week, like the 70s top 10 80s horror movies than it was my top 10 70s.

0:37.9

And like, I'm pretty sure I said last week, like the 70s and the 80s vye for which

1:23.9

King Renaissance. But we'll get to that. It was a great decade for vampires. It was a great

1:28.7

decade for werewolves. I think the 80s honestly had the most diversity in horror for any

1:34.8

decade. Like anything that you like, you will get in an 80s movie. You will find an 80s movie for
