Best Slasher Films?
 

I've seen threads for best horror films, and zombie films, but not slasher films. What's your favorite slasher film?

Seems there's been a resurgence of the 80's type of slasher films complete with tons of blood and bouncing boobs :)

People tend to disregard slasher films because they're generally cheesey, have a piss poor plot, and just generally suck.

That being said, as a horror fan myself, I hold a special place for the cheesey, shitty plot slasher films, particularly those of the '80s.

I've always loved the entire Friday the 13th series (except Jason X), with Jason Goes To Hell being one of my favorites.

Also, Happy Birthday To Me and Maniac are some other favs.

That was a pretty good one.

And let's not forget the film in my avatar and sig... :thumbsup

Scream 1,2,3 Haven't seen 4

Anything Wes Craven really.

Behind the Mask: The Rise of Leslie Vernon was a more recent one that I enjoyed. It gave a different perspective to the slasher genre, though the ending was predictable.

4's not out yet...not even sure if they're finished filming it yet. Might be in post-production...

Behind the Mask was a great movie! Good call.

I heard about it, didn't know if it was out or not :)

Hope it's good :thumbsup

I enjoy the old japanese samurai movies aswell, like baby cart / lady snowblood / etc. Not excactly slasher movies but plenty of slashing in them (if you know what I mean :winkwink: )

I was a kid in the 80's and I grew up watching that shit :thumbsup

Those are good too! Scream kind of revived the genre.

Yeah it did! love them movies, used to have the costume and everything :1orglaugh

The Prowler, My Bloody Valentine, Terror Train, The Burning, The Mutilator
