Those two episodes, covering 1970-1974 and 1975-1979, are the inspiration for what became the Decades of Horror 1970s Podcast, and, with added video flourishes, were reissued as episodes 160 and 161 in April 2022. Santos left us in September 2017, but the 70s Grue-Crew carried on as best they could. They are now at episode 250 of this inspired experiment, and the current Crew decided to mark the milestone with a similar but new list: one “favorite” film from each year of the decade from each host, this time packed into one very long episode. Remember, these are the Crew’s “favorites,” not what they think are the best, most popular, or biggest box office movies. In fact, a handful of movies were excluded. They also agreed not to duplicate any of their fellow hosts’ picks. This episode lists 40 films from the 1970s that the 70s Grue-Crew hold near and dear to their hearts. They hope you have as much fun listening to or watching this episode as they had recording it. Here are their picks: YearChadJeffBillDoc1970 EquinoxThe Vampire DollHorror of the Blood MonstersBeneath the Planet of the Apes1971A Bay of BloodLet’s Scare Jessica to DeathThe Abominable Dr. PhibesGodzilla vs. Hedorah1972 The Night StalkerNight of the LepusChildren Shouldn’t Play With Dead ThingsHorror Express1973 The CraziesLady SnowbloodThe Wicker ManThe Legend of Hell House1974Captain Kronos: Vampire HunterDerangedLisa and the DevilFrankenstein and the Monster from Hell1975Trilogy of TerrorBugDeep RedThe Rocky Horror Picture Show1976CarrieWho Can Kill a Child?The OmenGrizzly1977The Incredible Melting ManHausuSuspiria Shock Waves1978Invasion of the Body SnatchersSomeone’s Watching Me Dawn of the Dead Magic1979 Phantasm Zombie Mad Max The Amityville Horror Gruesome Magazine’s Decades of Horror 1970s is part of the Decades of Horror two-week rotation with The Classic Era and the 1980s.
