1982 isn't going to give me a chance to catch my breath, because although we've left the Golden Age behind, the slasher boom was still hitting America in full force, giving us the largest quantity of slasher movies in a single year in the history of cinema: a whopping 43. I guess it's time to get cracking and get over the hump! After this, Census Bloodbath will be a breeze, he lied.
So what does 1982 have on offer for us? Take a look...

It's a might undertaking, B, but you're the right guy for the job.
ReplyDeleteOf this year, I've only seen Tenebre. So 82 is completely over my head. However, I have been needing to see Silent Rage, because I heard it's one of Chuck Norris' more underrated films. Do I smell a collaboration on that one?
ReplyDeleteI would love to work together on Silent Rage! And if anything, you definitely need to see The Slumber Party Massacre. It's one of my favorites!
