You can always track the entire list of our slasher watching with our Letterboxd list.
Want to see these for yourself? Plenty of them came from Vinegar Syndrome, which has been releasing some of the best lost VHS era slashers on blu ray. There are others that came out from Arrow Video, as well. Within each article, you’ll always find a place to watch the movie in streaming form or where you can order a copy.
Thanks for reading! Now, I have to prepare to beat this record for next year.
