MovieMambo

Halloween is back from the dead, and this year César and Greg are slicing their way through one of horror’s bloodiest and most iconic subgenres: the Slasher.

From masked killers to final girls, suburban stalkers to dream demons, they trace the evolution of the genre and count down their favourite films, from those that defined the rules to those that reinvented them.

So lock your doors, keep your eyes open and never, ever look behind you.

So dim the house lights, turn the volume all the way up, and and let the feedback ring out.
