Title: Slashers that are not boogeymen
Post by: Bgrade on February 16, 2004, 11:03:24 PM
Related to the other thread.  Who are the best slashers  that are not "supernatural"  boogeymen. Note: I'm looking for slashers not just serial killers there is a differnce. (natural bron killer wouldn't count, while Jack the Ripper and The Hitcher are boarderline.  Slashers tend to kill in fast but strangely creastive ways. Plus they tend to have a different tyope of motive..I.e revenge and not just becuase they are freaks.

My list
Angela (Sleepaway camp)
The Psycho Sisters
Jasons Mom
slumber party massacres (except 2 that guy sucked)  (boarderline slasher)
...

As my brain is not working i'll stop there

Bloody Birthday, The Bad Seed . . . Slashers who are still children are always a little creepier.

   I can only think of two right now Billy from "Silent Night, Deadly Night" and the killer from the movie "Valentine's Day".

I'd say the Lead Cenobite from the Hellraiser series (Barker got p**sed off as all hell when people started calling him Pinhead) was a little more complex than your average bogeyman slasher.  Then again I'd hesitate to call Hellraiser a slasher franchise - just a very gory one.
