Mattapooh · 09-22-2008, 09:27 PM

Neat! Here's mine (only the top 5 are in order):

1) Halloween
2) Black Christmas
3) Slumber Party Massacre
4) House on Sorority Row
5) The Burning
6) Friday the 13th
7) The Prowler
8) Friday the 13th part 2
9) Friday the 13th part 3
10) Friday the 13th part 4
11) Rituals (Does this count? Seems close enough to me...)
12) Just Before Dawn
13) The Prey (God, I wish this was on DVD)
14) Silent Night, Deadly Night
15) Sleepaway Camp
16) Pieces (for pure cheese/humor reasons)
17) My Bloody Valentine
18) Prom Night
19) The Town that Dreaded Sundown (would've been higher without the corniness)
20) Humongous

The only problem with a top 20 list is that there's bound to be a LOT of crossover between our lists. Kinda says a lot about the subgenre, I guess.

Also, as weak as Humongous can be, I'm a huge sucker for a huge mongoloid attacking kids in the woods. Plus that redhead with the blueberries in her cleavage.

Mutilated Prey · 09-22-2008, 09:41 PM

I could easily swap in Humongous and House on Sorority Row into my top 20.

Pieces is awesome. Order it with confidence, you won't regret it.

Mattapooh · 09-22-2008, 11:52 PM

Pieces really IS awesome. Imagine the "GARBAGE DAY!" scene from Silent Night, Deadly Night 2 times ten, plus add in a bunch of really crazy kills and a little weirdness. It's an insanely entertaining flick with pretty much everything you'd look for in a slasher.... just don't try to take it all seriously like it's Maniac or something.
