    Excellent documentary on slasher films!

    Brilliant documentary on the slasher genre, includes lots of interviews with the people who made the films possible and most of the gruesome deaths. It covers everything from Black Christmas to The Devils Rejects and plenty of forgotten gems, plus some the studios would rather forget.

    Well worth checking out!

    Rippingly interesting

    As a kid/teen there was nothing more i enjoyed than watching a good slasher film. My fear and excitement at Freddy Kruger was scary and enjoyable both at the same time. This documentary takes you on a journey from the beginning too it's ultimate demise. Proving once and for all that when Hollywierd gets it's hands on a good idea it isn't too long before they've milked it for all it can get. But this documentary helps you remember the ones that were good and weren't controlled by profits.

    An excellent rental for anyone who is a fan of horror and gore!
