Got two awesome prizes here that I've been meaning to give away for a couple weeks now. Since they're both related, I figured what the hell ... let's make a little epic slasher prize package out of it!
Here's what you're playing for ...
Just released on June 1st, the colorful 200 plus page Slasher Movie Book by J.A. Kerswell 'chronicles the glory days of the horror sub-genre that brought murder, mayhem and corn-syrup blood to the big screen'. 'From its roots in Hitchcock movies, grindhouse and violent French theatre to the Golden Age of the Slasher (1978-1994)', Kerswell chronicles the bloody history of the slasher flick, the good, the bad, and the downright awesomely ugly. Packed with information and anecdotes as well as full color poster art, some of which you've probably never laid eyes on before, The Slasher Movie Book sets out to be the be-all end-all book on the subject and though I haven't read the whole thing yet, it just might be. I've leafed through the book enough to have come to the conclusion that this is one treasure all slasher fans absolutely need on their coffee table.
The second prize is a limited edition Maniac Cop playset, whipped up by my friend Patrick Carson Sparrow. I've blogged about these in the past but just to refresh your memory, this is one of only 20 of these sets Patrick created, and they're completely sold out over in his Etsy shop, never to be made again. The 'Slasher Cop' playset comes with a Matt Cordell mask, a badge, a pair of handcuffs (with key!) and a gun; everything you need to make your friends and foes remain silent FOREVER. Again, these are totally out of stock FOREVER, so right here right now is your last chance to get your hands on one.
Though I only have one Maniac Cop playset to give out, I do happen to have two copies of The Slasher Movie Book at my disposal. So what we're gonna do is have two prizes here; the grand prize being both of them and the runner-up prize consisting of just the book. How's that sound?
Being that this is such an awesome prize, worthy of you having to actually do something in order to win it, I planned on coming up with some kind of fun way to do this. But ya know what? I honestly couldn't come up with anything. What does that mean? It means you get off easy. Real fuckin' easy. Too fuckin' easy.
Leave me a comment on this post with your e-mail address and the name of your favorite slasher movie kill of all time.
Yep, that'll be all.
Good luck and the deadline for entries is next Tuesday, June 19th, at midnight!

Favorite slasher kill? From Fatal Games (1984): Chick is lifting weights. Then next thing you know, a javelin hits her right in the heart. It's done perfectly. Not fake looking at all!
Sleeping bag against tree death in Friday the 13th part 7.

Since it looks like i got here first, I'm gonna go ahead and lay claim to the Jason Voorhees sleeping bag kill. The original uncut one, not the neutered one in the final cut of F13 7. It's a popular one,maybe even a little cliche, but it's popular for a reason.

My favorite slasher movie kill of all time is Linnea Quigley's death scene in Silent Night, Deadly Night...a classic!
I have 2 first is really not a slasher to me but in scream 2 when Sarah Geller gets stabbed and thrown off the balcony. Second is jason x the frozen face

My favorite kill is actually from the recent (but awesome) Hatchet series. In the first film, nothing too violent really happens for a good while. We're introduced to the characters, they're fleshed out, and some great tension is built in the meantime. Then, when we finally get to the house of Victor Crowley - the swamp legend himself - he comes flailing out, screaming, and tearing apart the sweet (but annoying) elderly couple. The sheer gore, balls-to-the-wall cinematography and editing, and the great tension that led up to that point make it my favorite slasher kill of all-time.

Although it's probably cliche to use it, the sleeping bag scene In Friday the 13th Part 7 will always stand out to me.

and my favorite slasher moment of all time was in the evil dead, the first one. The scene where Scotty took and axe to shelly was hardcore for the time and something I don't think anyone would ever do today. It's not really a slasher type thing so if you don't count that, then probably, the scene in one of the hammer dracula's where he stabs the girl repeatedly in the bed, they made so many I forgot witch one.
final kill in Just Before Dawn! when the surviving girl jams her fist elbow deep into the killers face! years before feast i might add!
Grindhousehorror@gmail.com
Pit toilet kill from Sleepaway Camp 2. Ally was hot and then she was dead.
My favorite slasher of all time has to be Intruder. Of course such classics such as The Burning and My Bloody Valentine come close, but Intruder takes the prize. I just stumbled upon this movie last year after years of hearing about it and was totally blown away. The Bluray is gorgeous and I have never been so unsettled by practical effects before in my entire life! I'm so in love with this movie I'm actually getting Sam Raimi hanging from the meat hook tattooed on my leg this summer!

Favorite kill comes from STAGE FRIGHT (aka Aquarius, aka Deliria, aka Bloody Bird) when the Owl Man punches through the locked door, holding the victim and place, and then through the door Owl Man drills a fucking hole through the victim's stomach!! By far my most favorite and if you haven't seen it, watch it. NOW!
Allenofthedead@gmail.com
The Raft Massacre Scene from "The Burning". So brutal.
idsids24@hotmail.com
Favorite slasher kill would have to be from Maniac(1980)
Tom Savini takes shotgun blast to the face. Classic!
chrisbennett.ok@gmail.com
I know some people don't consider this a slasher film per say, but it was certainly a predecessor, anyhow the first kill in the Texas Chainsaw Massacre always does it for me. Certainly one of the most out of no where and shocking (for the time.)
Thanks!
chungnuts@gmail.com
Bob's famous stab scene from Halloween is a classic that comes to mind instantly!!
digisloth@gmail.com
My favorite slasher movie kill has to be from A Nightmare on Elm Street 4: The Dream Master. The roach motel scene where he turns Debbie into a roach slowly and painfully. "You can check in, butcha can't check out!" Hahaha.
TT5971@hotmail.com
My favorite Slasher kill was in the original Halloween, when Bob (played by John Michael Graham) is stabbed straight into the wall. I don't know what It it about the kill, but I've loved it ever since I saw the first Halloween film.
The first thing that comes to mind for me is the basketball decapitation in Deadly Friend. Possibly not considered a slasher movie, but that scene was perfection.

My favorite death scene in a slasher is in Jason X when Jason dunks the blonde's head into the liquid nitrogen and then smashes her head to pieces. Classic.

the knife into the cheek/neck from Argento's OPERA

I have to go with 'Pieces'.
There are so many good kills in that movie but I have to go with the lawn kill because it's rare to see a public kill in broad daylight.
omen59@hotmail.com
Even though it's more of a spoof than slasher, I'm fond of Yu's death in CLUB DREAD. She's running away from the killer and hops into a golf cart, trying desperately to get away... at 4 miles an hour as the killer strolls lazily next to her, ready to slice.

Fav slasher movie kill of all time?.... Welcome to prime time BITCH! Nightmare On Elm Street 3

It's so hard to choose, um, most of the kills from the Wrong Turn movies but probably when the girl is bisected with an axe in Wrong Turn 2

Bitchin' giveaway! Too many to name but I'll go with the tent kill in Jason Goes to Hell. The only redeeming quality of the film!
Thanks!

It's too hard to narrow down to one but the first 2 kills that pop in my head as far as favorites go are knife through head vertically from the Prowler and Tom Savini shotgun head explosion from Maniac. Those are some great kills.

Every single throat-slashing in House By The Cemetery, especially the one where he slits the one girl's throat standing at the cellar door.

The best slasher death scene hands down has to be Tina's death in the original Nightmare on Elm st. It's just so fucking brutal!!!
Bob Allen
mrbob77@live.com
My Fave kill is from Friday the 13th Part 2 where Jason kills the in the wheelchair with a machete to the face then the wheelchair goes rolling down the steps.
tracy_fried@yahoo.com
Oh wow - I'm surprised that my favorites have already been mentioned...I thought about the hiding out in the loo scene in Stage Fright, Ally's death in Sleepaway Camp II (they're leaches, Ally!!) and of course Janet Leigh in Psycho (which I don't think has been mentioned, come to think of it) but if I have to pick one it's Tina's death in the original Elm Street. It changed everything for me and sparked my love of horror and slashers. I was blown away by that scene when I was 12 and am still impressed by it today. So good!
One of the more unique and memorable, in my mind, in is Elm Street II. I love when the pet bird explodes and, rather than admit his house his possessed by Freddy's evil, he has a better explanation, he says, "it's that cheap seed you've been buying it!"

Jason's sleeping bag kill in Friday the 13th Part 7! There's an even better homage to it in Jason X when he kills one girl in a sleeping bag with another girl in a sleeping bag
Cory Carr
vikingwarrior814@hotmail.com
It's hard to pick just one, but one of my favs has always been from Hellraiser. The scene toward the end of the film where Frank [in Larry's skin] says "Jesus wept", then gets torn apart. Awesome!
I have to go with a scene from 'Jason X'. When Adrienne gets dunked into liquid nitrogen then her head gets smashed into a table... shattering it into pieces! I imagine they were trying to up the ante on the sleeping bag scene from Part 7. Fun times!
sean@kstudios.com
Thanks.
The bayonet through the boyfriend's head scene in the Prowler. BRUTAL!
johnnykrueg@gmail.com
It's hard to pick! The shish-kebab in Happy Birthday to Me, the wheelchair guy in F13 2, or the hand-stand in F13 3…but I think I have to go with Drew Barrymore in Scream. Maybe it's not the most creative choice, but it's my favourite! Creepy, brutal, and memorable.

My favourite slasher movie kill has to be the INSANE groingrab at the end of "Pieces." So out of left field - a perfect note to end that movie on.

I would have to say the stained glass window death scene from Susperia would have to be my favorite kill. It was brutal and beautiful at the same time. Love Susperia.

I'd have to go with Taylor "killing" leslie at the end of Behind of The Mask. Just a perfect moment. Long live BTM!

Favorite Slasher kill: Tina's bloody death on a ceiling. I remember A NIGHTMARE ON ELM ST was the first Slasher film I ever saw, and i was way to young to be watching it. I remember almost puking when her stomach gets cut open. Scariest moment of my life....up until that moment haha
Phillips death in NOES 3 Dream Warriors, when Freddy uses him like a marionette and throws him off the building. That scene can still make me squirm.

gOd damn, this is a really rough question. I am fairly suprised that no one has gave props to the guy who invented the splatter genre the Godfather of Gore...h.g.lewis..
So yeah, the kill that currently resides as my personal fave is the kill.. in his 1972 swan song film The Gore Gore Girls. The scene involves agirl who first gets her throat cut open, the gets her face ironed,then gets her nipples cut off and from one of her boobs out squirts regular milk and out of the other shoots chocolate milk. And within 4 seconds theres a bonus body her roomate comes home and gets her head dunked in boiling oil with french fries.. such a classic scene .to this very day it still makes me laugh out loud

My favo is in slaughter High where our killer puts chemicals in a beer to make our victims intestines just explode.
Awesome stuff

My favorite slasher movie kill would have to be from 'A Nightmare on Elm Street', when Glen gets sucked up into the bed and spit out as a geyser of blood.

My favorite slasher kill would have to be the Freddy kill in part 5 where he feeds Greta her own body! So morbid and bizarre, yet funny at the same time. Certainly memorable. Also fun seeing Freddy dressed up in a nice waiter outfit haha.
I was named after Melissa Sue Anderson. No joke. First and middle name. Ugh! But I learned to embrace this. I don't tell people about Little House On The Prairie, I tell them about Happy Birthday To Me.
Shish kabob death. I mean seriously? Shouldn't work but it is priceless. I had a friday the 13th themed party for my birthday once. Next party will be themed after this movie. After my name sake and all.

i would have to save i love the shower scene in alfred hitchcock's psycho
there's too many favorite slasher movie kills for me to name ,but if i have to pick one would have to be from the movie Friday the 13th Part III 3D when Jason Kills Vera with the harpoon gun scene, also what i love about this scene is we see Jason for the very first time with the infamous Hockey mask .

Favorite slasher kill is the giant mosquito in Popcorn. It always made me wonder if something like that happened during a William Castle flick.

Jason Voorhees killing the two teens while they copulate. Always funny.

My favorite slasher movie kill is also the frozen face smash from Jason X. It's funny how many people have said that. It's undeniably a bad movie, but that scene is so badass.
First off, that is an AWESOME prize pack!! I would LOVE to have that Maniac Cop play set!!
My fave Slasher movie is Bloody Reunion. I consider this movie the Citizen Kane of Slasher films. I cringe every time I watch it.

Defiantly the canoe slaughterfest in The Burning. Finally watched that recently and had an absolute blast.
Best slasher kill scene for me would be in Bloody Reunion when the guy is taped to chair,mouth full of razors and has boiling hot water poured down his throat. Citizen Kane of slasher movies!!

My favorite slasher movie kill would have to be...Its tough cause I like so many. I would have to say the Acid Beer in Slaughter High! The intestines bursting out of the dudes stomach was awesome. Great gross out moment.
I feel I should throw out the honorable mention for this little contest cause it only seems fitting.
Scissors in the stomach in The Burning!
Blaine Gaiser
blaine.gaiser@yahoo.com
My favorite slasher movie kill of all time...there are so many good ones but I would have to say mine would be the stealthy ACID BEER scene in Slaughter High. As a kid that scene made me not want to drink anything in a can for YEARS. The intestines popping out of his stomach was a great gross out moment as well.
I feel I should throw in a honorable mention since its a slasher contest. Scissors in the stomach in The Burning...TWIST AND SHOUT!!!
The Maniac Scene where Spinnell sticks the knife through the Chick's chest while standing behind her in the restroom.Dirty,Gritty,and the Maniacal Look in Spinnell's Eyes+Classic.So many actually from that flick,but thats my pick.Thanks. Mike_Ness_4_God@yahoo.com
Shit I think my comment didn't show up.
Soooo, I was saying:
My favorite kill is in Nightmare on Elm Street 3, when Freddy pulled out the veins of the legs and arms from this kid and used him as a puppet, then threw him from a tower while all the other kids are watching and screaming. Priceless
Just for fun, two other scenes i was thinking of:
The scene in Slumber Party Massacre 2, where the killer dances and sings to a rock'n'roll song tracking the girls, then slays one with his guitar drill!! Cool as hell.
Last one is not from a typical 'slasher'. It's from Blood Diner, a horror comedy directed by Jackie Kong in 1987. But there are these two brothers who get some kick murdering people, and there is this scene where they throw a guy on the road in front of a night club, and the guy has his head smashed by the bouncing wheel of a lowrider car, and everybody fucking laugh! Ha ha! Hilarious and crazy movie. You have to love Blood Diner.
Oh and I forgot to write my email : raphsbs@gmail.com
And, REALLY, watch Blood Diner, damn!!

This isn't the most epic,or brutal death,it's the chain of events that takes place to one character over the course of a film, and even after his death. So in Friday the 13th part 4: the Final chapter (ha),Jimbo gets corkscrewed in the hand, and the clevered in the face. So after he's dead, jason then steaks him up in the door way to spook Trish, and the later Jason tears his corpse down because he's in the way, and they show that shot were the tent steak tears through his hand. That gets me every time.
All Jimbo wanted to do was drink some beers with his friends, go skinny dipping with the spearmint twin, and get laid, so he could forget about his horrible Ex-Girl friend BJ Betty. Jason really is a cold mother fucker.

The Shot Gun scene from Maniac.
Note: Not necessarily a "Slash"-type of kill, but certainly an amazing one from a classic slasher flick!
One of my favorite scenes is definitely from Hatchet.

Friday the 13th: Part 4 - The Final Chapter
Jason sliding down the machete with his face at the end of the movie. Mr. Savini made that kill fucking great!
wes.ha86@gmail.com
If you count Hellraiser as a slasher, I think the death by hooks scene sticks out in my mind the most. Although I don't really think of Hellraiser as a slasher so...
Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors - The marionette scene where Freddy cuts and pulls out all the tendons and muscles of that one kid and throws him off the building.
