Look beyond the screams and gore, and you’ll find some killer ’70s and ’80s outfits.

There’s a famous scene in 1974’s The Texas Chainsaw Massacre where Pam first walks up to Leatherface’s house and his whole murderous family. Shot from behind, we see Pam in her cute, bright red mini shorts and backless halter top, slowly walking up to the front door. Every time I watch it, I know I should be spooked—especially knowing that she’s about to get snatched up by a chainsaw-wielding psycho. Instead I think, “That’s such a cute outfit.

What more could you want? The best scene in 1981’s The Burning—another camp-themed slasher—is when a group of teens go rafting and the killer pops out of a canoe. They’re all massacred while wearing cool varsity tees and big-collared shirts. Love. More recently, I re-watched John Carpenter’s masterful 1978 film Halloween starring Jamie Lee Curtis. Playing up her girl-next-door vibe, Curtis wears flared jeans, a blue button-up shirt, and sweater.
