Are Jason, Michael and Freddy still the big 3 slashers?

[BurtReynolds]

No Jigsaw?

[LoathedVermin72]

It's like you guys don't even know what a slasher is!

jfc tommy, get your shit together

[Jorge]

Do people today still respect the original big 3? Who out there is challenging their position?

Not sure, but second accounts are not allowed even when you forget your password, tommy. And I told you the last time this happened I'm not resetting your password any more.

This is some letter-of-the-law-not-spirit-of-the-law shit. Let Tommy post

A slasher! Couple of kids naked in a lake, certified maniac on the loose. Not a ghost!

This is too complicated for me. Lock this thread.

I'm not a big horror person, in general. I appreciate the ideas more than the products, typically. Now, there are some horror films that I think are the best films I've seen. So it isn't really a binary with me.

Freddy is a fascinating character and I love the Nightmare on Elm Street series, in general. Jason doesn't do much for me. I'm kinda split on the Halloween franchise.

I wonder is slasher shit isn't my shit.

I know this is controversial since he's so recent, but honestly, Art the Clown is already my all-time favorite slasher villain. I think Damien Leone and David Howard Thornton really captured something magical with the character - the happy mime with a literal demon underneath. He has the best qualities of Freddy (having fun tormenting people) without any of the worst qualities (like dumb quips since he doesn't speak). Art's genuine joy and boundless enthusiasm for killing and sadism is really what makes me love him. Not enough horror killers seem to be having fun like he does. I can't get enough of it.

Man I watched the first Terrifier movie and found it boring as shit and really poorly made. Opted out of part two since I hear it's also excruciatingly long. How much of an improvement are we talking about here?

This is a really funny sentence

Enormous, night and day. 1 is mediocre and they hadn't figured out Art yet. 2 is some kind of a masterpiece and 3 isn't far behind. There really isn't anything else like them.

Interesting... not at all what I love about Freddie

Jorge is not gonna like the Terrifier movies. But for the jump in quality between the first and second movies, think My Aim Is True to This Year’s Model.

[LoathedVermin72]

I dunno, I think he might like the sequels. They're delightfully weird and legit contenders for the goriest movies ever made. Also, Lauren LaVera is great in them.

[epilogue]

Talking about "goriest movies ever made" as a selling point feels..... I don't know... weird?

[bart]

Well now he has to watch them so we know who was right

[BurtReynolds]

I don't generally like watching innocent people get tortured and mutilated. It's probably because I'm a better person than most people.

[bada]

I'm a Dream Warrior for sure.

I knew this was Tommy making this thread because he just rated Friday pt 2 on letterboxed. Also because his fake name was one letter off from Tommy.
