I know very little about the situation for this movie personally as I do not own any copies of this movie atm, but I've looked a bit into The Spookies and sort of noticed that on the newer Vinegar Syndrome 4K restoration, the movie looks exceptionally bright and neutrally timed with a lot of gelled lighting looking sickly pastel.
It sort of stuck out to me as I seem to vaguely recall seeing brief clips of the movies ages ago looking far more vivid and immediately I stumbled across videos of it being soaked in rich blues.
So whilst I am not personally in a position to do such a regrade job myself, I'm sure some fan of the movie out there on the forum may be intrigued by the opportunity to do a regrade job to recreate the movie's original photochemical timing.

What's more, is that it seems this older release (not sure which one though) is sourced from some later-generation film element as is showcases reel marks. At the end of the clip below (at the 1:43 mark), you can see the cue in the top right corner.
