Let the body count begin! Join us for our five-part series Horror History, where we look at how the genre went from being a bump in the night to slaying at the box office. In this episode, we look at the history of slasher movies - from proto-slashers like Psycho (1960) and Italian giallo films in the 60s and 70s, to seminal horror movies like Halloween (1978), Friday the 13th (1980), A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984), Childs Play (1988), Scream (1996), and more!
