Slasher Films - Episode 116

This week, we continue our month long celebration of everything spooky with a deep discussion on the history and tropes contained in the humble Slasher Film.  Why are we drawn to a type of movie that contains a little more than a loosely drawn morality tale with loads of blood and guts?  How did these films rise to prominence in the 1980s and fall in the 90's only to be revived again with the meta film, Scream?  So grab your hockey mask or knife glove as we take a deep dark look at the Slasher Film.  News Bit- Our Response to The Silk Screen Film Festival Sexual Harassment News - 02:00 Slasher Films- 15:00 News Bit- https://pittsburghcurrent.com/silk-screen/ Use the coupon code "psychosnation" and save 25% on our TeePublic Store!   Sign up for PSYCHOS NATION: Our Monthly Newsletter
