Very nice job on the video. I have to give The Mutilator another shot. I remember being disappointed in it because it had an interesting set-up (son accidentally kills mom and the dad wants to kill him) but it seemed they didn't do much with it. The grown up son aka the lead seemed as if him & his dad were cool (thus taking his friends up to his 'dad's place') even though the guy was ready to kill him as a kid, and I thought they would do some kind of 'last stand/mano a mano' between the dad & the son at the end...but they didn't really do anything with it. Thought it was a missed opportunity, but again maybe it's a flick I need to give another shot. Hmm...underrated/obscure slasher films? To name a few for me... *Fade to Black - to me, an underrated flick starring Dennis Christopher as a guy who is a film buff and loves older movies, but he gets picked on all the time until he has had enough. So he goes out, pretending to be various film characters (including Dracula in an ode to the Psycho shower scene, a mummy, a gangster, etc.) to kill/get his revenge. Features an early role by Mickey Rourke. Solid flick and a great performance by Dennis Christopher. *Murder By Phone - fun to me based on the premise/the way the killer does his business. He uses a phone line so that when you pick up the phone, he sends some kind of electrical pulse that makes your eyes bleed, electrocutes you, and creates an explosion. Including at one point blowing a guy through his office and out the window of a building. It stars Richard Chamberlain. Many would call it slow (and yeah, it's silly) but I still rather enjoyed it. *Amsterdamned - loved the premise of a killer doing his deeds among the canals, using a diving suit, and it features some really stand-out sequences for a slasher flick. Including a boat chase which would fit well in a James Bond flick.
@pizowell7 жыл бұрын
A showdown between the father and son at the end of The Mutilator would have been cool. A real knock-down-drag-out kinda thing would have been interesting. I actually just re-watched Fade to Black for the first time in years just a few weeks ago. It slipped my mind, however. I haven't seen Amersterdamned, but I'm hoping to snag the upcoming Blue Underground Blu-ray.

I mean the movie really had some damn good kills. Unfortunately though, i live in germany and it's not very easy to get unknown and older movies here. I was actually really lucky to find the mutilator. I hope i'll find some of the other movies that you mentioned in this video too. Have a nice day

couple of films I think deserve to be on the list The Slayer - Arrow just released a special edition blu ray packed with features. Can't wait to get ahold of it. Really good slasher film. Kind of a precursor to Nightmare on Elm Street. I do think the ending is a little anti climactic and confusing. Nevertheless, solid slasher flick Superstition - paranormal type slasher film that doesn't get enough love IMO. Hell Night - doesn't get talked about in the same vein as other films, bit one of my favorites from the 80's. Linda Blair is sexy as hell in this film Sorority House Massacre - again, a forgotten flick That is really good. Happy birthday to me - a little long for the genre, but I like the Giallo feel to it
