Freddy is considered a supernatural slasher. Still slasher.

@REKONBALL2 The reason the 80s movies feel different is because Hollywood didn't throw millions of dollars at them to make them look polished and slick. They were low-budget films with a low-budget look that lent to their realism. They are much, much better than the sterrilized remakes Hollywood cranks out now days.

@11poketrainer I think the movie with the guy in the Jester mask may be Slaughter High. Definatly not Clownhouse as ur right, the 3 killers in that have face paint.

@HaruhiFanNumber1 Cool, I'll check it out!!!  : )

[HaruhiFanNumber1]

@ViceCityVacation yes, it is. :D

@11poketrainer Hahahaha fuck yeah but I think that has been the market strategy for, oh I don't know...35 yrs or so. But I actually thought that was alot more disturbing and upsetting than all these other movies. They said that movie was pretty much how it happened in real life. And cause you don't know they're motivation, that makes it more fucked up. : )

@HaruhiFanNumber1 So it's definitely worth the coin???

@Mezcalycigarros I do not watch many modern horror fims AT ALL! You have definetely got yourself mistaken because if I am anything I am a horror classics maniac!!!!!!!!!!!! I love them because they define the word horror itself! I think the golden age for horror started at 1970-1990 REMEMBER, THE EXORCIST CAME OUT IN 1973 AND THE ORIGINAL TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE CAME OUT IN 1974 so therefore it wouldn't make sense without those 2 amazing films! The Exorcist and Texas Chainsaw changed cinema life

@TheMikeyX If you think about Michael is a supernatural slasher in a way! Jason became sort of a superhuman zombie slasher in Part 6
