The Slayer (1982) comes to Slasher Movie Saturday!

In honor of this weekend’s screening at Scarecrow at Midnight at the Killuride film festival at Myrtle Beach we’ve decided to feature a rare slasher gem from the golden age of slashers – the 80′s. This week it’s the little known The Slayer (1982) featuring a killer that would give Freddy Krueger a run for his money. I mention Craven’s creation for a reason because during the time period that Craven’s script for A Nightmare On Elm Street made the rounds through every studio in Hollywood – it was rejected by a certain studio which then promptly turned around and commissioned a script with elements lifted directly from Craven’s script. The tale would eventually be told as A Nightmare On Elm Street finally made it to the screen in 1984 thanks to New Line Cinema and The Slayer faded into little known obscurity.

Planet Hulk smashes Scary Movie Saturday.

This month at Mutantville – we’re all about some Joss Whedon. We’re so in love with The Cabin In The Woods that we can’t wait to get back to the theater to see it AGAIN. Avengers hits the screens next week and our friends from across the pond have been raving about it for weeks. Joss Whedon wrote the script for Cabin In the Woods and directed The Avengers. The Avengers features the incredible Hulk – thus leading us to our entry for today’s episode of Scary Movie Saturday – Planet Hulk.

Check it out. When you finish head back to the theater and buy two more tickets to see The Cabin In The Woods. MVP will be right across the aisles from you. It’s Joss Whedon appreciation day with a movie only marginally connected to the man – Planet Hulk – and it’s right here on Scary Movie Saturday.

John Carpenter with MVP’s Inspirational Filmmaking Quote of the Week!

“When somebody who makes movies for a living — either as an actor, writer, producer or director — lives to be a certain age, you have to admire them. It is an act of courage to make a film — a courage for which you are not prepared in the rest of life. It is very hard and very destructive. But we do it because we love it.”

~~John Carpenter

Check out John Carpenter’s latest film The Ward now playing on VOD.  Come meet John Carpenter at this year’s Fright Night Film Fest in Kentucky on July 22 – 24th.
