No Italian horror films from the Video Nasty era on your '80s list, Dean my boy? The shame!

Here...let me give ya a list of directors you should be seeking out from THAT time period...

FULCI
D'AMATO
ARGENTO
BIANCHI
DEODATO
LENZI

Pick one film from each director, see it, and then revise your list...
😉

I kind of liked Creepshow 1 and 2
