Description

The 1970s were a booming age for horror, and it gave us some iconic films ranging from Carrie and Halloween to Dawn of the Dead. However, these famous films managed to overshadow some more terror-filled releases with spooky antagonists, and very few fans might even recollect names such as Dorothy Yates from Frightmare or Rosalie Nordon from The Child. Now, this does not take away from their terrorizing presence, and today, I am on a mission to lay out some of the most underrated horror villains from the 1970s and hopefully convince you to go revisit them this spooky season! #70sHorror #HorrorVillains #ClassicHorror #xenomorph
