In Search of Darkness ’70s takes on the era’s greatest horror films with CREATORVC’s acclaimed long-form documentary format, exploring a curated selection of films and television from 1970 through 1979, while reflecting on the tumultuous times of one of the grittiest, most revolutionary, and blockbuster decades of film ever recorded. From the most celebrated, legendary movie titles to the many eclectic, deep cuts waiting to be rediscovered, top filmmakers and actors, celebrity fans, and experts shine the spotlight on ’70s horror with candid observations, personal experiences, and critical analysis to celebrate and re-contextualize this amazing time in horror history.

The visionary team of writer/director David Weiner and executive producer Robin Block set their sights on the cinematic, revolutionary, and influential decade that introduced us to iconic films The Exorcist, The Omen, Halloween, Dawn of the Dead, Jaws, Carrie, The Texas Chain Saw Massacre, Suspiria, Phantasm, Alien, and so much more; a golden era that spawned unmatched horror creativity and defined how we’d look at the genre for the next 50 years.

“I’m absolutely thrilled to be revisiting the most formative decade in my life for the newest In Search of Darkness documentary. Growing up as a kid in the ’70s, I was exposed to all sorts of monster movies, creature features, and straight-out horror on our wood-paneled den TV and in the 99-cent movie theater down the street. From watching such films as The Exorcist, The Omen, Phantasm, Alien, and Halloween at way too young an age, I essentially imprinted on horror. For In Search of Darkness ’70s, we are assembling a murderer’s row of knowledgeable and recognizable talent to both celebrate and recontextualize this golden era of filmmaking, and I can’t wait to share it with our hungry horror community.”
