On this day, October 23, 1981, the horror film Nightmare, directed by Romano Scavolini, premiered in theaters. The movie starred Baird Stafford, Sharon Smith, and C.J. Cooke, and was known for its unsettling atmosphere and graphic violence. Though budget and box office details are unknown, Nightmare has developed a cult following among horror fans for its gritty, low-budget slasher appeal.

Do you remember seeing Nightmare when it was released, or did you come across it later as a cult horror favorite?
