We’re having a slashing good time this week in the Clashaween Countdown! On Monday’s episode we discussed all things 1974’s Black Christmas. Today we’re discussing the legendary film that is 1978’s Halloween. What more could you want from a slasher movie than a traditionally scary setting such as Halloween, a masked criminal and a deathly chase to escape his wrath?

Why not take the most joyous time of the year and turn it into a slasher film? Well that’s exactly what our first movie in this week’s bout of the Clashaween Countdown has done! 1974’s Black Christmas follows a sorority house that starts to receive anonymous, lascivious phone calls. They soon realise a serial killer is on the other end of the line.. And he’s closer than they think. Squaring up to the fight is 1978’s Halloween, but which slasher film will come out on top?

Welcome back to another episode of our Clashaween countdown. Halloween wouldn’t be Halloween without some zombies trudging about, that’s why this week we’re pitting two equally zombified movies in the ring. It’s 1978 Dawn of the Dead against, you guessed it, 2004’s Dawn of the Dead. Trying everything in their power, the terrified U.S. population attempt to escape the zombies that are swarming across the country… Which version will reign supreme?
