Previously available in a book version, this entertaining and interesting documentary delivers just what it promises: an exploration of the world of slasher cinema - how it started, how it stayed popular, and what may have led to its decline.
There are assorted clips from both popular and more obscure films, as well as interviews with some of the usual suspects (Carpenter, Craven, Cunningham) in addition to other genre directors like Paul Lynch (”Prom Night”), Amy Holden Jones (”The Slumber Party Massacre”), Fred Walton (”When a Stranger Calls” ‘79, “April Fool’s Day”), Herb Freed (”Graduation Day”), and Armand Mastroianni (”He Knows You’re Alone”). Effects notables such as Stan Winston and Greg Nicotero also make appearances, with special mention made of Tom Savini and his contribution to the genre.
Various topics covered include the harsh critical reaction to these films, the details of the early entries that would become conventional in many subsequent efforts, the emerging trend of displaying graphic violence instead of just implying it, the silly trend of building a slasher around almost every conceivable holiday, and so on.
Although some of the interviewees aren’t saying anything that we may know already or have thought about ourselves, it is rather impressive to see so much of this material in one sitting; if you are a fan of these films, seeing this film will be a no-brainer, although I can’t guarantee for sure just how satisfied you will be by the conclusion. (This hour and a half kind of flies by and it might leave one wanting more.) Pretty good overall, though.
