Good list. What's classified as a slasher is so subjective. I personally wouldn't consider Texas Chainsaw, Psycho, Phantasm, Hellraiser, Candyman, Wolf Creek, Devils Rejects as slashers but if someone said they were I wouldn't argue. My list is 1. Halloween 2. Nightmare on Elm Street 3. Black Christmas 4. Deep Red 5. Tenebrae 6. Scream 7. The Bird with the Crystal Plummage 8. Friday The 13th Part 4. 9. Terror Train 10. Prom Night
My definition of a slasher is this....a killer who stalks multiple victims (on one viction, killing others in his/her path) for the sole purpose of killing them. TCM is NOT a slasher in my book because Leatherface does not stalk. He protects himself. The victims come to him.
I can agree with that. I go back and forth on whether Psycho is a slasher film because I associate slasher films with a body count of over at least 3 or 4. I think Norman only kills two people in that movie. But I definitely agree that Psycho along with Peeping Tom had a huge influence on the genre.
if you think about that...saying that TCM is not a slasher because Leatherface protects himself, in a way, could kind of mean that Friday the 13th Part 2, could not be a slasher. I mean, in the same way that Leatherface is protecting his house and himself, Jason could be protecting his territory from these bitch ass camp counselors lolol. They both are a little slow mentally. I don't know. I might be looking too far into it hahaha. But truly, if u think about that...
Jason leaves his territory to kill Alice in the beginning of the movie.
oooooo, good point lolololol. I was just playing devils advocate
"we horror fans don't get scared that often, we just like the rush!" I love you, Lee!
Love you too Lucas!!
Slashers are my favorite sub genre of movies
Oh me too!
Same
Mine too. I have been searching for good ones I have seen and forget about or ones I haven’t seen. I used to check net the sites one weren’t good.
Couldn’t agree more!
If Psycho made people afraid of showers the Shinning made me afraid of baths. 😲
OMG yes!!
Room 237 is nightmare fuel incarnate.
TCM made me scared to go in gas stations
Edward McKenzie oh yes! The heart pounding sound makes it incredibly haunting!
Well in my opinion physco is better
Finally, someone else who loves Halloween 4
nickthemusicnerd27 Oh hell yeah!!
nickthemusicnerd27 ,the mask is my favorite,he so shocked
number 4 was definitely better than numbers 2,5, 6, etc
I honestly consider 4 my favorite. It's obvious why it's so fun to me too. The characters and premise are AMAZING. 10 year anniversary. Loomis chasing Michael on his way back (at his most emotional I must say his performance is fantastic to me), then there's Jamie who is really cool to me in the movie and the ending is the perfect way to keep the series going without Michael and it actually makes sense... and then they undo it in 5. There are other reasons, but I just didn't want people to die in it. The 2018 movie and the original both have characters like that too, but I just prefer Halloween 4.
its my fav behind the first.
10: My Bloody Valentine
09: Terrifier
08: Silent Nigh Deadly Night
07: Scream
06: Psycho II
05: A Nightmare on Elm-Street
04: The Texas Chainsaw Massacre
03: Sleep-away Camp
02: Halloween
01: Friday the 13th The Final Chapter
I like your list a lot but I would move terrifier it was way freakier and menacing then psycho 2 awesome list. LoL
What about Wrong Turn series,
High Tension,
Eden lake,
Frontier
Didn’t really like Terrifier, thought it was pretty bad but hey good list anyway.
Thanks for saving me 12 minutes... Terrifier is a piece of shit.
Great list, Lee! It's so nice to see people giving props to Halloween 4! I LOVE Halloween 4! Some of my favorite slasher films are Halloween (1978), Psycho, Halloween 4, Jason Lives, The Final Chapter, Halloween 2 (1981), Friday the 13th Part 2, and Nightmare on Elm Street (1984)
All great choices man! Love every one of them.
To be honest all the Halloweens are good... and what makes them good is the doctor Loomis.. Donald Pleasence the only one who could truly explain and understand Michael...The only one Michael actually seemed to respect... A friend and enemy... number 1 the best though... I kinda link it with 2 as same movie... Carpenter and Debra Hill wrote both scripts I believe
Thank GOD you included Black Christmas. Billy is a great character, I agree. It was also the first holiday horror film. Halloween was originally conceived of as a sequel to Halloween. Carpenter asked Clark if he was going to do a sequel. He said no, that he was done with horror, but if he were to, he’d have the killer escape from a mental institution on Oct 31, and name it-you guessed it-Halloween. Carpenter took it from there, and the rest is history.
Yes Black Christmas is essential horror.
I even like the remake from 2006 (i think)
My top 10
10. Maniac
9. The Slumber Party Massacre
8. Halloween 2 (1981)
7. Madman

Cristal Magana
Thank you for recommend me for that video it was a really good watch
The burning is a great one!
Ahh a man of culture I see Halloween 2 is my favorite of the series
I'm afraid to take a shower, because of "Jaws", not "Psycho"...I need help.
I've never seen a shark in a shower. :p
I'm afraid of water and showering, and also cleanliness, and TMI ;)
That's what's so damn creepy about them... You know they are there but you just can't see them :)
Hahahahahahahahaha!
Why is Jaws going to come through the water faucet wow
Good list! Here’s mine:
10. Friday the 13th part 2
9. Prom Night
8. The Fog
7. A nightmare on Elm Street
6. Psycho II
5. Sleepaway Camp
4. Black Christmas
3. Scream
2. Halloween
1. Psycho
Fun Fact: The original My Bloody Valentine is Quentin Tarantino’s favorite slasher movie.
Fun Fact: That's not a fun fact.
Yes, it is@@111highgh
Great vid Lee. Loving that you have the burning and sleepaway camp. Love them both.
Oh yeah those are true classics!
I haven't heard of a few of these! Dave and I just finished this video, adding a few movies to our watch list! As always, a great video, Lee!!
Laurie!! I really wanted to add some lesser known ones to my list, which are still deserving. Definitely check them out.
10 terror train
9 the prowler
8 scream
7 sleepaway camp
6 the burning
5 madman
4 night mare on elm street
3 Friday the 13th part 6
2 Black Christmas
1 halloween
Outstanding list!
Wrong Turn??
Derek Goodin Glad to see another fan of Madman!
Good list, but....where's My Bloody Valentine (1981) or Just Before Dawn (1981) or Rituals (1976)? Bah!
no texas chainsaw massacre? thats wrong
1. Friday the 13th (1980) - the heyday of the slasher genre in the 80's when they showed blood, gore and decapitation. It led the genre into the new decade and made it more popular than ever..... and copycats would follow.
2. Nightmare on Elm Street- Freddy Krueger brought it up to a different level. Surgically sharpened knives on a glove that'll rip through you as you can't escape sleep. He didn't just kill his victims but play twisted games of cat & mouse with you before slicing, drowning, burning or whatever sick way he could send you to your doom
3. Black Christmas - before Silent Night Deadly Night, Black Christmas took the slasher genre and turned it on it's heels that inspired films like Halloween and Friday the 13th. That and it's kills are enough to put it on the top 10 list.
4. Halloween - You can't have a list without Halloween. Perhaps the first movie that took the horror genre into the new decade . John Carpenters classic created a new, faceless boogyman. No ryme or reason. Just a cold blooded killer who'll stop at nothing until he kills that person.
5. Psycho - Hitchcock's gigantic masterpiece set in first person view from the killers perspective and switches to the people in the film. Sounds familiar? Friday the 13th did it as well. Shows that the films legacy and how it was filmed got passed on thanks to it's influential viewpoint and direction.
6. The Texas Chainsaw Massacre - Cannibalism, psycho's wearing skin masks, a weird eating scene with Grandpa.... Yeah it's influence of the genre shook heads with it's creepy dark morbic tone
7. Scream - Modern day nods to the old horror rules spun in the 90's by the master himself Wes Craven. Unknown killer slices and dices teens who don't abide by the rules....
8. Child's Play - Talk about any killer doll and the first one that comes up is Chucky. There would be no Annabelle without the 1988 hit about a local killer who transfers his soul into a good guy doll and desperately tries to get out by voodoo and into a boy who first discovers his true identity.
9. Friday the 13th part IV: The Final Chapter - Fourth entry in the series didn't disappoint as it had it all. Better kills, antagonist (Tommy Jarvis) and a great ending to what was going to wrap up the series.
10. Sleepaway Camp - Mysterious killer hacking people up at a camp. Sounds familiar? Like many would afterwards, Sleepaway Camp takes a nod from Friday the 13th and adds a oh so shocking twist at the end of the movie that'll leave you horrified and stunned. With plenty of unique kills in between.
Solid list and great write-up!
@@DrumdumsMovieReviews thank you. Appreciate the feedback
What year? I typed in black Christmas and found 3 movies
Is it the 2006?, 70s or 2019?
every other movie on your list is 100 times more enjoyable then friday the 13th it’s so boring and it is a copy of halloween you can’t say everything after it is a copycat when it’s a copycat of halloween and a bay of blood two movie made before it and done much better
@@DrumdumsMovieReviews his list is not solid i get you’re a nice guy but there is no way you think putting friday at one is a solid choice i know you saw that and thought this guy was 10 years old
I want to say how much i appreciate your channel and your care for us in responding to posts here and on Twitter. means alot. you have a great Thanksgiving.
Black Christmas started it all. It was a huge influence on Carpenter. Carpenter once asked Bob Clark if he’d ever do a sequel to Black Christmas and Clark said no. Carpenter then asked if he were to do one, what would it be about. Clark’s answer:
“..it would be the next year and the guy would have actually been caught, escape from a mental institution, go back to the house, and they would start all over again. And I would call it Halloween.”
A lot of great picks! I just recently watched Sleepaway Camp and that ending is terrific.
Oh yeah Sleepaway Camp is pure slasher cheese gold!!
Halloween stole from Black Christmas, then Friday the 13th stole from Halloween, then the 80s stole from Friday.
Haha yep. That about sums it up.
There were Slasher movies before black Xmas.
They all stole from Psycho.
Black Christmas took stuff from Pyshco and Peeping Tom. All the best have inspiration from something that came before.
its called inspiration not "taking" but halloween tops them all, no matter which one came first.
Great video. My top 10 in no particular order are
1. Halloween ( masterpiece and one of the best horror films of all time)
2. Psycho ( Classic)
3. is a tie between Friday the 13th part 4 the final chapter and part 6 Jason lives ( both are my all time favorite Friday the 13th films)
4. A Nightmare on Elm street (Great film )
5. Childs play 2 (so much fun and my favorite film in the franchise )
6. Scream ( such a great film )
7. The Texas Chainsaw Massacre ( amazing )
8. The Strangers ( Great film and very creepy )
9. You're Next ( great film. Second favorite film that Adam Wingard directed after the Guest witch i don't consider the Guest a Slasher film )
10. Hatchet 3 ( This might surprise some people but this is my favorite of the 4 Hatchet films )
Great list! I need to give Hatchet 3 a watch.
Hatchet 3 is my favorite of the series as well
Blu ray Addict the strangers is so good but no one looks at it
@@jbbbedc8300 I agree! I love the strangers. It was SO scary because it could really happen just because you're home.
New subscriber!, this is a really good countdown. I need to watch more 70/80 flicks😁, thanks man
Thank you Tina!!
This was awesome, Lee! Keep it up man.
Thank you Ryan!

What an awesome list thank you Lee for even mentioning slasher films I’ve never even heard of or have yet seen. Such as black Christmas I still need to see that, I will be popping in Scream today. I need an escape away from these unprecedented times. Number one should definitely be “ Halloween” Hands Down!🤟🏾🎃 Also thank you for leaving information regard merch, I’d like to show more of some of my support for you and your channel. So I’m going to check out the store, I started to dm you via instagram and ask about the shirts you’re wearing and how to find them so thank you for all that you do and for continuously providing such good content as a horror movie fan to escape into and bring even smiles and lite laughter during this time... I appreciate it always.💛
Black Christmas is so great. I've done a part 2 and 3 of this too Michael.
Hey Lee, great list. I completely agree with you about F13: The Final Chapter. A couple of slashers I really enjoy that I think aren't that well known outside the horror community are Pieces and the first Slumber Party Massacre. They're both so much fun. I think I'd also put Texas Chainsaw Massacre on my list. Thanks for the video👍🏻
This is a really great list. I love how high up on the list you have The Burning and Sleepaway Camp. Halloween is my favorite movie of all time so I too would give it the #1 spot. The Prowler has some really brutal kills. It's worth watching just for the gore.
Yes SC and The Burning embody everything that a great slasher should be...and camp slashers are the most fun. Halloween is my all time favorite movie too!
Coffee on the west coast and a Drumdums top 10. Gonna be a good day. On a side note, have my big job interview at 2pm today... wish me luck y’all! Cheers Lee! 🍻
Dylan Thomas Dude....good luck bro! You’re going to crush it!!!
awesome review Lee out of all your videos this was the one i was most intrigued by. There was a couple on your list i have not seen i need to check out i.e The Burning. No Halloween 6? lol. Slasher is my favourite within the horror genre but to do a top 10 would be tough. top 10 horrors is far easier but here goes -
10. Halloween H20 ( i have a massive soft spot for this movie)
9. Child's Play (i think its a slasher!)
8. Friday The 13TH (1980)
7. Halloween 4
6. Valentine
5. Friday The 13TH part 3
4. Nightmare On Elm Street (1984)
3. Pyscho
2. Scream
1. Halloween (1978)
I am also a massive fan of movies like Texas Chainsaw Massacre, The Hills Have Eyes and Wrong Turn but i don't think they are classed as slashers more sort of Hillbilly cannibal type killers!!
Man I wanted to add a few of the Halloweens haha, but I restricted myself to one from each franchise (but I snuck 4 in as an HM haha). Love your list...and yes those are more psychotic horror that slashers in my book.
I'm glad you gave Halloween 4 a honourable mention it is my second favourite slasher after the original. Great list and vid.
Oh my gawd, I LOVE your list! I love every film on your list, as well as your honorable mentions. The only film I've not yet seen is Bay of Blood (but I'm going to see it before the end of this most perfect, festive month!) I love the style that Argento's classic films have. There is nothing in the horror genre like an Argento film! I actually describe Suspiria, Deep Red, Tenebre, and Phenomena as the most "gorgeous, grotesque horror films in the world." His work is art of the highest form!
The only film I would like to see receive more love is Silent Night, Deadly Night. So brutal, so fun, so crazy, creepy, campy & just a great slasher!
Great list Lee!!!I'm like a kid in a candy store when it comes to slashers but the original Halloween will always be my #1
Accept no substitutes. The original Halloween is unbeatable!
Idk if all of these on my list would be considered slasher films but to me they are. Your list was tho awesome man. Here's mine..
1. Halloween (1978)
2. A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984)
3. Friday the 13th (Final Chapter)
4. Scream
5. Psycho
6. The Texas Chainsaw Massacre
7. Saw (the original one wasn't gore porn imo)
8. Child's Play
9. My Bloody Valentine
10. Prom Night
Love your list Chris!
Wrong turn best
Hey, just recently discovered your channel and I just wanted to let you know that I think you're doing a great job... keep it up! Great list... I've seen all of them except Tenebrea... but now I want to! And.. if you haven't already, you absolutely have to see The Prowler... one of my personal favs... directed by Joe Zito from Friday 4, make-up effects by Tom Savini... and a final girl that strongly resembles Amy Steel from Friday 2... how can ya go wrong with a lineup like that?? Once again, keep up the great work and... I want that book!! lol
My top ten slasher movies:
1.) Psycho ( I know most don't consider it a slasher, but I feel most slasher movies owe it to the success of this movie)
2.) Halloween 1978
3.) Scream
4.) Halloween 2018
5.) Friday The 13th Part 4
6.) My Bloody Valentine 1981
7.) Halloween II 1981
8.) Psycho II
9.) Friday The 13th Part 3 ( more of a guilty pleasure)
10.) Nightmare On Elm Street
I always felt that My Bloody Valentine was super underrated, and it's a shame we never got a sequel. Especially considering SPOILER ALERT...........................................................they never caught the killer.
Nice! There's a few that I haven't seen, and they're going on my list "To Watch" now. 👍👍
Awesome! Yeah I recently discovered a few of these myself, and they're that good!
very well done video man i'm a really big fan of slasher films!
My favorite horror sub-genre.
Good list, delighted to see The Burning ranking so high :)
Awesome video Lee and top 10!!! Slasher films are my favorite sub-genre in the horror genre and that slasher movie book is amazing. I got the UK version before the U.S. released it and it's called "Teenage Wasteland".
Anyway, amazing picks buddy!!! Sleepaway Camp and The Burning are two of my favorites. I love them both!!! Halloween definitley stands as the best slasher movie of all time. Black Christmas is still one of the creepiest horror films I've ever seen.
What's up Justin?! I'll have to look into Teenage Wasteland. Sound interesting.
Just an FYI...i just found the book you mentioned at the beginning of your video. It’s on Amazon for $15 new. Thanks for sharing another great video! 👍
Awesome! It's a great book for sure.
My favorite
-psycho 2

-happy deth day
-my bloody valentine

Alice, Sweet Alice is such an underrated slasher classic. That would be high on my list as its creepy and such a devastating movie, the killer is fantastic as well. Cool list though there's some great movies on here :)
No Terminator 1? Mister "it's a slasher movie" lol. Awesome list man. I need to check out that Bay Of Blood now. Like wow!
I actually forgot to mention it haha!
My favorites are, My Bloody Valentine, The Burning, The House On Sorority Row, Black Christmas, Halloween, Friday the 13th, Scream. Slasher is my favorite sub genre of the horror genre.
Great list!
I dont have a full list but A Nightmare on Elm Street has always been my favorite. The premise, Wes Craven's directing, Robert Englund and Heather Langenkamp's acting, and the sheer creativity of the whole film are unparalleled to me personally.
One thing that really sets Halloween above the rest is the awesome score by John Carpenter. So iconic and terrifying.
Great list, dude! I'm loving this channel!
Yes, I have taken issue with your #2 selection but I love the fact that we're all different.
Is Sleepaway Camp better than Black Christmas, A Nightmare on Elm Street, Friday the 13th Part IV: The Final Chapter, My Bloody Valentine etc.....
Um....NO! 🤣👍
But hey, debate is fun! 🔥
Excellent picks! Couple interesting choices like Tenebrae. Haven't seen that one.
Oh man are you in for a treat!
Thanks for the heads up on the slasher book.you've never seen the prowler it's a must see.
So glad to see A Bay of Blood on this list. I too consider it the first example of the modern slasher. Also thrilled to see The Burning on here, as that's always been a personal favorite. You absolutely made the correct choice for #1.
Oh yes Bay of Blood is essential.
Your horror reviews literally get me through my work week! Being a Horror Fanatic Myself I can definately say you give great points information and thoughts on a lot of these franchises. I would love to see you do a take on the HATCHET Series. thank you!
Thanks so much Max! I'm planning on getting to the Hatchet series.
This was a great list, you have a lot of my favorite scary movies on this list! I will continue watching and just subscribe to your channel
Thank you so much Dominique!!
Great list Lee--- some good stuff in there! Would you consider The Fog a slasher? Or a ghost story? I always wonder about that 😅
I would definitely consider The Fog a ghost story...and it would definitely make my #1 on that list.
Love love love Sleepaway Camp !! Saw it for my first time a few weeks ago. The ending !!!
Luke Cage And I just met Felissa Rose this weekend. Absolutely sweetheart!
Great list buddy, didn't realize Killer Flicks was yours! I'll join now =)
Welcome to the group brother!!
I love Halloween. It is one of my favorite slasher movies of all time. I'm a huge Wes Craven fan. Love scream, a nightmare on elm street and the hills have eyes.
Great list! I have added a few movies to my must watch list now:
7-Black Christmas
6-Bay of Blood
4-Tenebrae
3-The Burning
2-Sleepaway Camp
Guess I have been living in a bubble and never heard about any of these!
Oh wow all these are fantastic. Enjoy!
Jasont0625 neither have I i.Love yr list to . I have see these now movies on your list to. They look scary like I like to n great Thrillers I would love to.
Finally, someone likes the remake of A Nightmare On Elm Street
Guitars & Ghouls Why are you suprised nobody likes it? It was god awful.
Several Argento movies could easily make my list - Suspiria, Deep Red and The Bird with the Crystal Plumage in particular. The original Texas Chainsaw would also definitely make mine. I might also include Inside; I really dig that movie - waiting to see what you think of it.
Anyway, great list.
Can't wait to check out more of Argento's. Is Inside a slasher?
I would classify Inside as one, yes. I don't want to give too much away, but let me just say that one of the reasons I love it is because there are some shockingly violent scenes that are brutal and bloody as hell, and stuff that just makes you cringe imagining how bad something you just saw would frakin' hurt.
Black Christmas 1974.Halloween.Friday The 13th.Sleepaway Camp.Bay of Blood.Pieces.Scream.Wrong Turn.Blood Feast.Headless almost forgot Terrifier
Great list, Lee! I think you're really going to dig Dario Argento's Opera, one of his best slasher movies, aside from the laughable ending that is. And Sleepless, too. Enjoy!
I'm looking forward to that one...and Deep Red!
Deep Red, of course, how could I forget. Let me tell you, the twist ending will blow your panties away, lol !
Nice. I mentioned it too. Scoring reminds me of Phenomena where Argento started using rock and heavy metal songs at times, haha. Opera is wild.
Tbh your choices really surprised me (eg Bay of blood, the burning and no.4) because mine were more well known and all, but I went and researched the 3 and they really sound gruesome and entertaining-my type of movie. Just wanted to say thanks for introducing me to these new ones and hopefully I’ll get more recommendations as good as these ones from you in the future
No problem. I wanted to put together a good mix of popular horror with some that my viewers might not have heard of. Makes for a fun list.
It's cool to keep coming back to this and reading other people's top 10s
Yeah this vid constantly gets new comments. Thank you.
@@DrumdumsMovieReviews just a recommendation. I haven't seen you review 1997's NIGHTWATCH with Ewan McGregor, Josh Brolin, and Nick Nolte. I have a feeling you will love it.
@@baumer2504 Ooh that one slipped by me. I’ll chcheck it out!
Just subscribed. I came upon your reviews by accident. I have the Slasher Movie Book and it is a fun and easy read and gave me a bunch of new slasher movies to seek out. I love your selections, especially the giallos A Bay of Blood and Tenebrae. Check out Opera next from Argento. You will love The Prowler. I just updated to the Blu-ray of it and it so clear and well lit that I can clearly see all the great Tom Savini effects. I would include Aquarius(aka Stage Fright), the 1989 slasher The Intruder, Happy Birthday To Me, and who can resist the entertainingly awful Pieces. Speaking of Pieces, how about a review of the Top 5 So Bad They're Good Horror Movies? Pieces, the Dead Pit, Horror Hospital, and Contamination Point 7 would be the Top 4 of my list. I'll think about a fifth. Eager to catch up on all your videos. You're very easy on the eyes. Thanks man.
Awesome welcome man! Opera is my next giallo review actually. Can't wait.
Good list! I'm up to #4 so far I hope you have the original 1978 Halloween and 1981 H2. H4 was great but mainly because of Danielle Harris and Donald Pleasence's performances. Michael was not as frightening in that one and mostly because of the inferior mask compared to the original.
There's so many great ones I can recommend to you but three just off the top The Prowler as you mentioned you hadn't seen, The Intruder 1981 (amazingly creative kills), and Tourist Trap.
I try not to put more than one entry in a franchise on one particular list. But I have 2 more "best slashers" list where you'll see 4.
Solid list! Never seen Tenebrae. Bout to scope it
It's such a great slasher. I just recently discovered it.
Good list love your videos lee as a horror fan I love your takes on all the classic slasher movies that came out and your top 10s I would like to know who are your favorite top 10 final girls in horror slashers
Thank you Miguel!
Great list, love all of these.
Great list i can't fault you for you picks great stuff don't have nightmares!
Haha only if I'm lucky!
Great list DD! 👍👍
In my opinion Mario Bava is the unwitting creator of the slasher genre. His "Bay of Blood", released in 1971, has everything the genre needs to be defined as such and he has clearly anticipated all of them because Black Christmas was released in 1974 while Halloween in 1978. Furthermore, “Blood and Black Lace” is also to be considered. for the importance of having the serial killer in disguise. Another fundamental film is Sergio Martino's “Torso”, released in 1973 if I'm not mistaken, another extremely important film together with Bay of Blood. But Mario Bava is the father of the slasher genre in my opinion.
Bava was a genius. You might be right.
@@DrumdumsMovieReviews What is the difference between Friday the 13th and Bay of Blood? None if you think about it. I obviously mean for the style and the details that the slasher genre must have. Except Friday the 13th came out 9 years after Bay of Blood. Another detail about Blood and Black Lace is that it was the first film to have a body count if I'm not mistaken. And the movie came out in 1964.
@@DrumdumsMovieReviews I need some help as you definitely have a huge collection of slasher movies. I would like to buy the US blu ray editions of Slaughter High, Tourist Trap (uncut version), Graduation Day and Happy Birthday to Me (Silver Collection). Can you tell me if all these versions contain English subtitles please? Thank you
If Tenebrae wasn't on the list I might have unsubbed haha. First video with a shoutout that I didn't get prior warning. Thanks Leesus, love you babe!
No problem brother. If I say Tenebrae...I say Dylan Clancy.
Drumdums It thinks it's fair to mention me in every Argento/Bava review😛😇
Eh it's not a Slasher though. There are differences between Gialli and Slashers.
Really enjoyed this list, liked how you also paid tribute to influential classic titles like PSYCHO. Now gotta watch BURNING and some of the FRIDAY-Moves (only ever seen the 1st one). Have you watched BLOOD AND BLACK LACE? It's a classic flick by Mario Bava from 1964, which was way ahead of it's time, with a masked Killer murdering behind the backdrops of a Model Agency. It may not be as violent as other films on your list, but it's stunningly stylish, with some surreal lightwork, and has established a lot of now classic tropes in the Giallo Genre as we know them today, like beautiful women in peril, killer with black leather gloves, extended POV-Shots, etc.
Thank you!
Amazing list Lee. I probably couldn't tell you my list but I can tell you my favorite which would be the Texas Chainsaw Massacre yes I know some people do not call it a slasher movie but to me it is a slasher movie
Hey Drumdums I was wondering if you were still interested in reviewing thirteen ghosts, I'm anxious and curious to see your review. Thanks again!
Aaron Baldonado Absolutely! It’s on my to-watch list. Thanks!
I kinda miss those days of walking in to your local video store and heading straight for the horror section and having a peak at the back covers for some gore coz I was too young to rent 18s. I'd still go home with haunting images and the bedroom light stayed on lol
Oh me too. That was part of the whole experience.
This is a pretty good top 10 slasher list. My list would be very similar with just a few change's.
Nice! Thanks for watching.
my favorites are friday the 13th, nightmare on elm street, halloween, scream, sleepaway camp, psycho, black christmas, the burning, my bloody valentine, prom night and the prowler. I'm obsessed with horror movies. my favorite genre all my life!!!
Halloween 4 is one of my favorites but for some reason when Michael is in hospitals 🏥 creeps me out the most. I think Halloween 6 was what Halloween 4 was to you. Halloween 6 just creeped me tf out. Plus his power walk and everything.
I love Michael in Halloween 6. He was pretty scary. Vicious and brutal.

A solid plot, okay there are some things that are hard to swallow ( not only the skewers... i mean in the plot...) ... it s a masterpiece !
great list, my favorite is the bay of blood! have you check out the trailer for the horror called hereditary? it looks amazing 😱
Yes I recently checked out that trailer. It is HIGH on my must watch list.
Dario Argento is one of my favorite directors. I don’t know if you ever seen The Bird With The Crystal Plumage but that one is pretty good.
Joshua Nesbitt don’t forget Deep Red

Great list and video!
Thank you!! Recording a new one today actually. More slashers!!
The slasher sub-genre is my favorite of Horror, so making a list of the top films of the genre would be extremely difficult. However, I'll do one anyway. Also, the Prowler is very similar to "My Bloody Valentine" except this time the killer wears Army fatigues. I also believe that 'The Burning' didn't get sequels and was turned into a franchise was because the filmmakers thought people would draw too many comparisons between it and the Friday the 13th films which are no doubt similar in many ways.
1. Halloween (1978) - The granddaddy of them all and one the main officially made these type of films mainstream.
2. Psycho (1960) - Pioneered the genre.
3. The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (1974) - Some people might not personally consider this a slasher film which I can understand completely, but to me it is. A slasher is a film with a sub-part to high body count and one that involves a killer with sharp implements as their weapon to stalk their prey which is applied in this film after the first three deaths when Leatherface leaves the farm to kill Franklin and
4. A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984)
5. Friday the 13th (1980), Friday the 13th: The Final Chapter (1984), or Friday the 13th Part VI: Jason Lives (1986) - I couldn't pick one Friday the 13th film because every movie left their mark in their own significant way, but the three that I mentioned did it the overall best.
6. Scream (1996) - Best of the 90's
7. Black Christmas (1974) - One of the most underrated slasher films of all time, and without it Halloween wouldn't exist.
8. The Burning (1981) - Some of the best gore effects ever, and possibly of all time. Tom Savini deserves all the credit for making the kills visually look amazing. I can only imagine if Friday the 13th films had the same level gore this movie had.
9. Sleepaway Camp (1983) - One of the best twist endings ever.
10. Silent Night, Deadly Night (1984) - Many would probably laugh at the idea of this making any list, but the premise and theme of the film focusing on a kid's common fear of Santa Claus and that fear conquering and consuming them always interested me. Plus, it was the most controversial slasher film of the 80's which fueled people's attention to Horror even more.
This is my list.
10. Blood and black lace (1964)
9. Deep red (1975)
8. The Texas chainsaw massacre (1974)
7. Peeping Tom (1960)
6. Psycho 2 (1983)
5. Black christmas (19747
4. A nightmare on elm street (1984)
3. Halloween (1978)
2. Alice sweet alice (1976)
1. A nightmare on elmstreet dream warriors (1987)
This list is alot similar to what i had in mind for mine but my number 1 would have to be the prowler or happy birthday to me. But this is a good list and im glad you actually like halloween 4
Check out my Part 2 and 3 of this. 2 more rankings for you...and both of those are on Part 2 I believe. I think you'll like my #1 on Part 2.
I watched The Prowler after seeing My Bloody Valentines and really liked it, its another one that Tom Savini worked on and some of the kills are excellent and the killer is mystique. Another decent slasher if you haven't seen it is See No Evil with Kane..the story is depending on who you ask, I think its okay, but the kill scenes are brutal..highly recommended.
If Tom Savini worked on it, then I have to see it.
Awsome content bro! ^_^
Also Glad Sleepaway camp is in your list Lee,that movie is such stupid fun movie I really like it
Yes I adore Sleepaway Camp.
