I mean, sure these guys kill, but is it enough to count them as slashers. For me I do, but there’s been a lot of doubt coming from my peers.

I found it to be a bit slow. Although, I did really like the grim atmosphere. The score was pretty good too. It’s definitely worth to watch at least once, but it’s not the kind of movie you can watch constantly, IMO.

Maniac is one of my all-time favorites as well. Joe Spinnell was marvelous as Frank Zito. The kills/gore were great, and it just had this sense of realism. I love it.

Alone in the Dark is very underrated IMO.

I agree you picked some nice companions (maybe I’ll write a second part!)…

I also think Don’t Answer The Phone, When A Stranger Calls, and 10 To Midnight belong on this list.

I wouldn’t expect anything less from you. The fact that I’ve seen almost all of these does not diminish my joy in reading this article. Now I see where all the cool kids hang out these days.
