ALL - Sample Opening - Slashers

Slashers (Maurice Devereaux, 2001)
Budget: $165k
Went straight to DVD without making it to the cinemas because its an "indie film"
  • 8 seconds into the film and the genre is already obvious because of a clown killing a child
  • Nudity foreshadowed when the girl is killed with her top up
  • The people are wearing masks which is narrative enigma
  • Hint of Psycho with the music and the violence
  • Very exaggerated humour
