Slasher films are a dime a dozen now, but decades ago, the classics emerged: Psycho. Halloween. Friday the 13th and Nightmare on Elm Street. They sparked numerous horror tropes and pioneered ideas that would become mainstays in the darker side of film, and today, the Dead Air crew discusses the impact of classic slasher flicks.
