I remember being around 11yrs old (circa '84) where I first started watching Friday the 13th parts I thru IV. Before seeing the films I was always fascinated by the ads in the newspaper and on TV. Ahh, the good old days.

Relive some of those days by watching a cool doc about Jason Voorhees. The sweetest part about this is all the original cast members make an appearance to talk about their scenes. It's interesting to check out n see how they've all aged. Most share some great insight into production and funny onset stories. Plus (make-up fx artist) Tom Savini hosts the doc to boot.
They even interview the chubby girl from part IV that gets stabbed from the back while eating a banana. Also, great interviews from the people that played Jason too.This is worth checking out if you're a Camp Crystal Lake fan.

Okay, now we got the 3-D version coming out...which I personally can't wait for...it's time to look into the original.

This is a classic slasher with extra creepiness to boot. This film has a claustrophobic feel with mine tunnels and eerie gore. Also, ya get to laugh at the group of goofy early 80's working class people with the typical bad acting and hairdos.

Harry Warden is a way cooler killer than Jason or Michael Myers with the gas mask and pick axe and in my book its its over.I remember watching this film as a kid and I loved it. Now its out on DVD with all the gore, finally! I know what I'm watching every valentine's day. Harry Warden, you are a slasher god and that was true even before the 2009 3-D version. Thanks for the gory memories.

Here's the original 1981 TV spot. Classic material.

This is my 3rd favorite gore film next to the original Evil Dead and Peter Jackson's Dead Alive. It is nastier than these titles on the level that the blood flows in a non joking manner. It is just down right sick.

A demented a little boy chops his mommy's head off while she is having sex. OUCH!!! The camera doesn't cut away in the gore. The gore scenes were said to be shot by Tom (Dawn of the Dead) Savini. But from my understanding he had nothing to do with this flick. That doesn't matter as these scenes are fan-friggin-tastic on the blood level...WOW!!!There's not much online with this puppy, but trust me find it...it's disturbing in the bad way...the bad way that you need it for the gory finale. It's a finale that makes me cringe.

Friday The 13th knockoff, but instead of Jason Voorhees you get Madman Marz! And don't say the name Madman Marz out loud in the woods near a lake unless you want him to get pissed off and chop off your head with an axe.

This slasher is gory even if the total body count is only 6. Two of them are decapitations. Ouch! Here's one of the few pics of Marz out there...he's your typical creepy hillbilly with overalls and dirty boots.The main chick, Gaylen Ross, is also from Dawn of The Dead. So, between the 2 flicks ya got yourself a sweet Gaylen Ross double feature!

If your a hardcore slasher fan this is definitely worth checking out...

A young female has nightmares of violent murders and before you know it she finds her boyfriend dead. No, I'm not talkin' about Nightmare on Elm Street - this flick came out 2 years before. I'll call it the original dream slasher.

I found myself questioning is this her dream or reality? Oh my god! What's she gonna do? For christ's sake someone get me another beer. I'm not drunk enough yet!

The gore in this is pretty realistic and it has an overall creepy feel. It's trash and it's perfect for late nite viewing.

This thing is evil, it screams and it oozes puss - so don't fuck with it!At one point, an unaware girlfriend kisses her boyfriend's head just after it was decapitated. Now that's messed up.Allow me to quote the trailer: "If its only a nightmare...why is everybody DEAD?!"

Motel Hell taught me at an early age never to eat at a restaurant/ meathouse that 's located next to the motel your staying at. Why? Cause that burger your eating is made from motel guests. I think I got a pube caught between my teeth eating near a motel one time. I'll save that story for a later post though.

This slasher takes a bit from The Texas Chainsaw Massacre and that's definitely a good thing. But, instead of a Leatherface skin mask you get a monstrous pig mask!All bullshit aside, I really love the chainsaw duel towards the end. Just thinkin' about it makes me tingly in the lower groin area because I'm a freak. Wolfman Jack is thrown in as the kooky town preacher. I guess that's a redundant statement since kooky and preacher go hand in hand. Anyway, Praise the Lord!

Whatever you do stay out of the motel bath! Don't these people ever learn?
This trailer has a great voice over that makes me think Eli Roth used this as a reference for his Thanksgiving trailer...

Typical slasher plot: A young boy is exposed to a photo of a naked woman, goes bezerk and chops up his mother up with an axe. Flash forward, he is now an adult doing it all over again. Goddamnit, if that ain't the best formula for a flick I don't know what is!

My favorite quote ,"The most beautiful thing in the world is... smoking pot and fucking on a waterbed, at the same time." Truer words have never been spoken in the history of man.
Pieces has it all chainsaw massacres, disco aerobics, a random kung-fu master, pornographic jizsaw puzzles and a girl wetting her pants. Seriously, put that all in a soup and I'd eat it!

Check out this scene with a gardener trimming some bushes!

And for the record, this is the greatest slasher film of all time.

Three babies are born at the wrong time of the year making them killers by the age of 10! Another cheesy slasher flick that deserves some attention. Total body count in this lil gem is 8. Which is a bit low for my extreme taste but it still makes for some late night fun.



The best part of Bloody Birthday are the nude scenes of Julie Brown who's career peaked in Earth Girls Are Easy. I say forget that movie and check out this pic from Bloody Birthday. Damn, Julie Brown was hot back in the day!

She does a sexy little nude dance to put it over the top. Everybody knows a slasher flick ain't complete until we see some nudity. FACT.
