Most horror movies from the 1970s mainly take place at night, which means low lighting. The low light creates a suspenseful feeling to surprise the viewer. The light creates tension and often shocks the viewer when the antagonist approaches. Most of the horror films from the 70's thrived on the low-key lighting. The lighting itself can set the movie's mood without any additional effects. This is probably why people still watch horror movies from the 1970's to this day.
