The Slasher Classics movie series includes:
The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (R) – Oct. 4 and 5 – Fifty years ago, five youths on a weekend getaway in the Texas countryside fell prey to a butcher in a mask made of human skin and his cannibalistic family, and horror cinema would never be the same. Violent, confrontational, and shockingly realistic, director Tobe Hooper’s The Texas Chainsaw Massacre terrified audiences in a way never thought possible when it was unleashed on a politically and socially tumultuous America in 1974. Facing a storm of controversy, censorship, and outcry throughout its troubled release, this masterpiece of horror has stood the test of time to become a landmark motion picture and cultural milestone.
A Nightmare on Elm Street (R) – Oct. 11 and 12 – In 1984, Freddy Krueger became an instant horror icon in director Wes Craven’s visceral shocker. Watch as Nancy Thompson and her friends are targeted by a serial killer with a bladed glove in their dreams as they find out Freddy can kill them in real life.
Friday the 13th (1980) (R) – Oct. 18 and 19 – Jason and his hockey mask may not show up onscreen, but this origin story is required viewing for slasher fans everywhere. Teenage camp counselors attempt to re-open an abandoned summer camp with a tragic past, but they are stalked by a mysterious, relentless killer.
Scream (1996) (R) – Oct. 25 and 26 – Wes Craven sends up the genre he helped create in this slasher satire that follows a teenage girl who is terrorized by a masked killer who targets her and her friends by using scary movies as part of a deadly game.
Halloween (1978) (R) – Oct. 31 through Nov. 2 – Fifteen years after murdering his sister on Halloween night, Michael Myers escapes from a mental hospital and returns to his hometown to kill again.
*No toy weapons (including knives and guns). No costumes with face-covering masks.
