Cameron's Closet
A father who experiments with his son's psychokinetic powers is unaware that these experiments have released a demon from hell which lives in his son's closet, preparing to take over the young boy's soul.
Why it matters
A late-’80s blend of psychokinetic terror and demonic possession that rides the era’s practical effects wave with uneven but earnest results.
- Practical creature effects lean into that era’s rubber-and-blood charm, delivering a tangible menace lurking in the closet.
- A lesser-known entry in the body horror/possession crossroads, mixing telekinesis with infernal dread before shows like *Stranger Things* mined similar territory.
- Not for fans seeking polished storytelling—its pacing and script can drag—but offers a raw, analog horror vibe that feels like a lost video store gem.
- Perfect for viewers who appreciate ’80s genre curiosities where ambition outstrips budget, and the scares come from creepy, homemade visuals rather than CGI polish.
