As we get closer to Halloween, The Excellent 80's brings you a horror classic from 1989 by the master of horror literature - Stephen King. His books were generally too scary for me, but I read some of them anyway. The movies normally didn't do the books justice, but they got close, and they generated some income. From 1989, here is the spooky "Pet Sematary"...

If you grew up during the 80's and still have a soft spot in your heart for mullets, leg warmers, Pacman, and you still remember who you had a crush on whenever you hear REO Speedwagon's "Can't Fight This Feeling," then I hope you get some enjoyment here as we blast through the world of music videos, tv shows, sports, cartoons, and movie clips from the 1980's.
