Before we get to Wes Craven's supreme slasher commentary 'Scream' (1996) next week, Rocco and Alex trace the history of three films that came before it and three more that followed in its footsteps. These are our favorites in the Meta Horror subgenre, and they create their own mini-marathon with 'Scream' in the dead center... emphasis on DEAD!
In today's discussion, find out...
Why Michael Powell's 'Peeping Tom' was reviled in 1960!
Why Tom McLoughlin's Jason Voorhees needed a sense of humor!
Why Wes Craven thought Freddy Krueger had abandoned his spooky roots!
Why Edgar Wright wanted to make a horror movie!
Why Tucker and Dale couldn't catch a break!
And what movie is a love-hate letter to the genre!
