anyway, my favorite is Carpenter's "Halloween".
and the "Scream" trilogy was a great take on the genre, pure rollercoaster fun

ps: i don't think "texas chainsaw massacre" is a slasher, it's pure horror
Scream? A "great take"? It's a spoof. :) I dunno about the sequels, but part 1....look at all the goofy scenes like the Freddy-dress-alike janitor aptly named "Fred". ;) And when Sidney wondered if Cotton was innocent and Tatum was like "Don't go there, you're making it sound like a Wes Carpenter flick or something". lol What cheese. :D I didn't mind "Scream" so much in the beginning and middle, but when Stuart and the video guy started talking about the murders versus motive and sub plots, it started going down hill from there. Not a shitty movie, but if it were taken more towards a creepier atmosphere and away from the comedy, it could've been a seriously frightening film.
