As regards horror on TV, it was probably the Phillip Leacock TVM
Baffled with Leonard Nimoy and then
Crowhaven Farm with Hope Lange. They made some scary TV movies in the 70's, not so? I also vaguely remember watching
Horror Express and
Dark Secret of Harvest Home later ~ but what I will never forget is our holier than thou teacher in primary school asking us who had watched
DSOHH and then reporting those who had to the principal.
I told the principal that I had my parents' permission to watch it and that they watched it with me, a story which they corroborated.
Horror at the cinema:
Race With The Devil and I sneaked in to watch
Phantasm.
