How we do love a good slasher, and bonus if it’s an independent, low-budget affair. And so, we look forward to seeing Blood Slaughter Massacre. If the offcial NSFW trailer is any indication, this film, written and directed by Manny Serrano (Zombie Hunters: City of the Dead, Episode 10), seems to have a few parallels to John Carpenter’s Halloween (1978): creepy mask, a decade since the “birth” of the legend, and a shower stabbing scene… oops, that’s Psycho, and any good slasher worth its salt. There are other “homages” to the great slashers of the ’80s, but these are the obvious ones in the trailer.
This throwback to the ’80s, including a nostalgic ’80s soundtrack, started out as a series of shorts, parts one to three of four shorts make up the Blood Slaughter Massacre feature-length film.
Blood Slaughter Massacre stars Matt W. Cody, Danielle Lenore Calhoun (Shredder), Mike Roche (The Attack of the Brain People), Carmela Hayslett (Zombie Hunters: City of the Dead, Episode 10 and 11, The Attack of the Brain People), and Byron Howard.
The Mass Grave Pictures’ film will screen this Saturday at 1 p.m. in Union, New Jersey, at Grindhouse DAYS at Cafe Z – Summer Scares. Ten bones give you admission to all six films for the day, the vendors, and Q&As.
Blood Slaughter Massacre (2013) synopsis:
Ten years ago, Officers Fincher and Cobb were called out to investigate a noise complaint, and what they found was far worse; 24 people, murdered in cold blood. The murderer escaped, and the Havenwood Police Department covered it up, inventing a story about an out-of-control fire. Barely escaping with his life, Fincher tried to put it all behind him, by drinking it away. Now a Detective, he is investigating the death of two young girls. After meeting some of the local teenagers, Fincher gets a tip from the Coroner, telling him that the Ripper has returned to finish what he started a decade ago. With no one on his side, Fincher must find out how these girls fit into the Ripper’s plan, and stop him before it’s too late.
