About Dead and Slaughter; the Dad and Daughter Horror Show
"Dad, wanna watch a movie?"
"That's not a movie."
"DAD!!!"
Who with a teenager hasn't had that conversation before?! In our home, Sam KNOWS what is best and dad is just a stick in the mud. But begrudgingly, daughter dearest has come to see that dad might know something about film after all. So when Sam confessed that she REALLY liked horror films and dad said that he REALLY didn't, they thought that together, maybe they could learn something about the genre.
Come along with them as they watch some of the best films ever made, that just happen to be scary.
Dead and Slaughter are Dad and Daughter, making their way through many a horror show.
Dead and Slaughter investigate the mystery of the videotape that when watched puts you on the clock for seven days before you die at the hands of Samara, a very angry, vengeful young girl. But unlike so many other films of this genre, The Ring has no violence or gore and Samara is a very sympathetic character. This film is widely regarded as one of the best horror films of this century, after dreading watching it, did Sam agree?

Alien
Dad and Sam head in to deep space with the crew of the Nostromo to answer a supposed distress call. In reality we are on our way to enjoying one of the best science fiction/monster horror movies of all time. 1979's Alien has held up incredibly well and Sigourney Weaver's Ellen Ripley remains one of the iconic badass women of film. We are joined by amateur horror film maker Rion Smith to discuss the importance of this classic in the oeuvre.

28 Days Later
