DAY 20 – THE SLAYER

My choice for “S” was THE SLAYER (1982). While I was expecting a standard ’80’s slasher flick, this one actually spent a decent amount of time establishing the characters and building suspense. While it never rose to any level near Hitchcock, I was pleasantly surprised by this movie’s quality. With time spent on exposition, it naturally paced a bit slower than your average slasher, but I didn’t mind. I also reveled in watching a bunch of asshole vacationing yuppies meet their end. Welcome to my mind…
