More back on topic, thanks again for The Final Girls mention. Really enjoyed that free rental last night.

AnemicOak was the one who brought up the movie. I just helped get us
How could I have forgotten the name of Friday the 13th? That was certainly a classic.
I do wish that the slasher movies were considered a separate sub-genre (maybe some people do so consider it), so as to make a distinction. To me, there is a lot of difference between them and the monster movies and other ones that you mentioned. "Slasher" might be a good name for the subgenre, if it's not being used already . . . .
