25 Essential Slasher Movies

Slashers — that gloriously grubby, stabby subsection of horror — were first unsheathed in the early 1970s, 5️⃣ when Mario Bava stalked his cavorting, frequently disrobed victims around in A Bay of Blood. The movie set up mood 5️⃣ of the slasher: Sexually charged, with a degree of mystery, where the ample cast of characters one-by-one take a sharp 5️⃣ turn into doom. Slashers can be stylish (Opera, Dressed to Kill), carnal (Torso, Friday the 13th), grimly violent (The Prowler, 5️⃣ The Burning), trashy (Pieces, The Slumber Party Massacre) and even supernatural (Halloween, Child’s Play).
