Professor Spencer comes back to the pod, and this time we have a horror themed class for today that is dedicated to that bloody, gory, and sometimes goofy horror sub-genre we all love: The Slasher Genre. We get into the brief history of where is all began, the troupes seen in most slashers (Hello all my final girls), the boom of the early 80s and the demise in 84, and so much more. The Direct to Audio Spooky Season Spectacular wouldn't be complete without a little love for one of Horror's often imitated and often duplicated style of movie, and that is what lead to this deep dive for you today. Plus, it's one of Host (and professor) Spencer's favorites/ guilty pleasures, and it's his show, so... you're welcome.
