Review of Going to Pieces: The Rise and Fall of the Slasher Film (2006) by Haydn W — 22 Jan 2008
A decent dissection of the slasher sub genre covering its rise with films like Halloween, Friday the 13th and Prom Night to it's heights with Nightmare On Elm Street and eventual fall and rebirth in the 90's with Scream.
Lots of horror directors give there theories on the genre and plenty of blood and gore clips to keep the fans happy. Good stuff.
