Retro Slashers Double/Triple Features
Fight those slasher remake blues with a Retro Slasher double or triple feature in the comfort of your own living room. Horror movie marathons were common back during the glory days of 42nd Street and southern drive-inns and the following suggestions are for fans looking for a nostalgic slasher fix. If any Retro Slasher readers have suggestions for a kick ass slasher combination feel free to write them in the response section. I’m interested in seeing your ideas.
Heavy Metal Maniacs Unleashed: Terror on Tour, Rocktober Blood
Silent but Violent: Silent Scream, Silent Madness
Enjoy an evening in the Theater of Blood: Stage Fright, The Flesh and Blood Show
Tom Savini’s Greatest Slits: The Prowler, Maniac, The Burning, Eyes of a Stranger
Tom Savini’s “I didn’t have a damn thing to do with that film”: The Ripper, Nightmare
Pledges in Peril: Hell Night, The Initiation, Killer Party
Don’t Watch this Triple Avalanche of Horror Alone: Don’t Go in the Woods, Don’t Go in the House, Don’t Answer the Phone. +++A word of WARNING, if you try to watch these three films back to back you’re going to lose some brain cells.
Killers on Campus: The Dorm that Dripped Blood, Final Exam, Graduation Day
William Castle’s early Slasher Entries: Homicidal, Strait-Jacket
A Buck Flower Bonanza: Camp Fear, Berserker. ++These two films belong together. One features a lost druid and his pet monster roaming the woods of California. The other stars a lost Viking and his pet bear roaming the woods of Utah.
Guilty Pleasure Slashers: Bloody Movie, Nail Gun Massacre, Satan’s Blade. ++All three are pretty bad but oooh so entertaining.
