Slashers

There is nothing more satisfying than a good Slasher. A masked killer offing a series of victims in all manner of gruesome ways with all manner of sharp pointy things, will never not put a smile on the face of a horror aficionado and the sub-genre has given us so many iconic killers and final girls.

Kick back and flick through ARROW's Slashers section and discover all manner of new killers stalking and murdering an endless supply of hapless victims who had it coming in a range of titles you'll know, you may never have heard of, or vaguely remember seeing just out of reach in the video store. From classics to new spins to deep cuts, they're all here in Slashers.
