Once again we do what we do best here and go overboard. It's the 1980's this week on HorrorBid. What exactly does that mean besides having a very busy and slightly neon looking site theme? You'll still read your usual daily dose of horror news but done with as many 80's references as possible! (j/k, or are we?)...

Follow up:

Look for tons of impromptu contests all week long. When will they happen and what will they entail? You'll have to wait and see. We will say this. From prop replica Freddy Krueger heads and masks to year long subscriptions to the insanely tight RUE MORGUE magazine. We have tons to give away and only 7 days to do it in. Expect us to pop in and our of all the social networks as well as updates here.

What else does 80's week mean? Well, that is where we want you to help. Either you lived the decade or you've heard about it. We want you to stop by the site and live and breath what horror meant in the 80's. It was a significant decade for our genre and one that we hope you'll remember fondly with us. From the big hair to graffiti on seemingly every square block of NY, the 80's were and always will be the decade of the horror slasher boom.

Sit back, relax and pop in some old school movies or whatever it takes to get you in the spirit. A special thanks to all of our sponsors below and to all of you Bidites for requesting these crazy "theme" weeks. They are truly a lot of work, but also a lot of fun for us to put together.

UPDATE: Right out of the gate we have a contest going on for all you social networkers. "How many 80's horror films made it into our header?" Do you think you have them all, click here to enter. Winner is taking a shirt home from our friends at FRIGHT-RAGS.
