Brings back a lot of memories from the 80's. Me and my Mom were never particularly close, but this was the one thing we bonded over. She loved scary 🎥's

I remember watching this! Especially one night in Okwaville IL at the old bath house and hotel, when I was with my stepbrother and parents. It was a hot summer night and all of the windows were open in our hotel room. The window curtains were waving in the breeze coming from outside. I had just finished a swim in the indoor pool. It was such a cool experience that’s stuck with me

Wrestling at the chase was awesome, used to watch Bazaar too.

Also I remember after this they played 3 stooges til dawn. And even had marathon stoogemania where they broke open the vault lol

I used to watch this all the time when I was growing up in STL. .I'm pretty sure it was 'Shocker' at the time, could be mistaken. But I remember around Christmas, just before we had the historic blizzard...Christmas lights were still up outside, but inside I had the lights off to watch...It was absolutely frigid and blowing and snowing, winter in Creve Couer when the ice formed on the insides of the windows and the icicles are three feet long...and I tuned in just after the credits rolled to what ended up being, to this day, one the most disturbing, scariest movies I have ever seen. I mean, I LOVE good horror films and this one was probably the first that actually SCARED the !@# out of me...the film had different titles for both the theatrical release and television broadcast in the states, and only years later did I find out the original title...but it took place primarily in a sorority house during the Christmas season...

This is great! Now someone please find the 70s Creature Feature and Chiller Theater openings from the St. Louis market.
