5th Evolution 80s Horror

5th Evolution: 80's Horror is a supplement that allows you to take D&D 5th edition rules and enter the realm of comic book and movie horror.

The book contains 34 pages of content. This is an adventure and rules supplement for 5th edition. You need the core books, basic pdf, or the srd to use it.

It starts with a  black and white comic book that sets up the game. It looks like the old school EC style and really sets the mood. The first page of the comic details the setting, 1985, and the horrors of the time. This is followed by a group of young people invited to a party by a sexy biker lady in leather. This party takes place in an old mine tunnel. Also the party is actually a cult ritual. Fun times!

Like other 5th Evolution books, the comic is followed by an adventure that picks up where the comic ends. However, right before the adventure is a quick 1985 primer, which includes a text box that discusses the Satanic Panic. In the adventure the party must find a way to defend themselves and escape the tunnel. During their escape they'll encounter zombies, a poisonous snake, and the Weiss (the horrific creature on the cover). The adventure itself is deadly and like the protagonists of 80's horror films, it's best for characters to flee.The adventure is followed by a page of equipment.

The adventure is followed by a horrific many bestiary. All the creatures come with stats, descriptions, and adventure hooks several also come with alternate versions. The monster section includes

• Renfields (with Sherrif's Deputy Variant) - tough human antagonist
•  Evil Clown - name says it all, also includes "Puddles" an evil poodle familiar
•  Lesser Fiend - think Gremlins, Ghoulies, and Critters
• Mummy - because magic is scarce, there's discussion altering mummy rot
• Ochre Jelly-just like the Blob and the Stuff, there's also a doppelganger variant that makes it more like John Carpenter's The Thing
• Re-animated Corpse - Frankenstien's monster 
• Slasher - everyone's favorite psychos, signature weapons are discussed
• Vampire - the stat block says Vampire 5EVO, but I've not checked to see if it's different than the MM one
• Werewolf - there's a sidebar that gives rules for making silver bullets
• Zombie (with plague zombie variant) - braaaaaains

There's a one page discussion of making characters for 80's horror. Like the Carbide City book, players pick an archetype presented in the book. Each archetype has a variant. They are

• Athlete/ROTC 
• Nerd/Goth Kid
• Cheerleader/Shoplifter
• Cool Kid/Clown
• Girl/Guy Next Door/Scout
• Tough Kid/Farm Kid

The book ends with the OGL.
