Fear Level: Scary
Trigger Warnings: Jump scares, nudity, mild gore, stalking, cops, bad portrayals of therapy, violence against women Support us on our Patreon at https://www.patreon.com/progressivelyhorrified In 1978 there was no such thing as the "slasher" genre. Psycho and Black Christmas were oddities in the thriller genre. Until one very tall man stole a tan station wagon and drove it Haddonfield to steal a featureless white mask from the general store, walk slowly with a butcher knife, and steal headstones. And thus was cinema changed forever.
