Night of the Slasher (2015) watch online HD

To give credit to it, Night of the Slasher does at least try to play with post-modern horror ideas. The plot sees a girl strip to her pants, dance to music, drink, get frisky with a guy, and all the things that usually spell death in a horror movie. However in this case it is a deliberate ploy to summon a serial killer so she can get revenge for a previous attack.

The plot is ripe with 80's clichés – the indestructible masked killer, the music, the girl with her wild blonde hair, and of course the list itself. There is a certain amount of enjoyment to be had from this but unfortunately this film is a case of potential more than delivery. It plays with genre clichés but not in a really smart way. It is sort of creepy in the odd moment, but it isn't really in a lingering or memorable way. The humor is there in a knowing sense, but it doesn't really draw you in and make you go with it. The one- shot is a nice idea, but it is too obviously masked and in the end it didn't feel like it was trying to appear as a one-shot film.

It is worth a look but mostly it is a film that misses the mark fairly consistently, which is a shame because it is close enough that it could have been better.

"Night of the Slasher" is an American live action short film in the English language that runs for slightly over 11 minutes only and was written and directed by Shant Hamassian. He already has some experience when it comes to short film making, so the "inexperienced" argument isn't working here anymore. And actually, he does a good job with his direction. I just think that the script was messy and the longer the film went the more confusing and lacking focus it became. This is a bit of a pity as it's an okay watch until we see the killer stab the guy, which is relatively early admittedly. I guess he should have stuck to his straight-edge approach. And even if the killer looks somewhat nice and scary, the fight between him and the girl was so ridiculous that I stopped taking him seriously pretty quickly and at the same time I also stopped taking the film seriously. And the revival? Oh well? What is he then. A ghost? A monster? An alien? He can't be a human right? I would say watch for yourself, decide for yourself, but you really shouldn't unless you are the biggest slasher fan on the planet. The ending is also pretty underwhelming. I give it a thumbs-down. Not recommended.

The use of the cliches of the genre. This is axis of this modest short film, almost a resume of horror films, using , in not bad manner, familiar scenes but having, as lead sin, the unrealism. Something missing for do it coherent work. And, mazbe, that is the ash taste after its end, when zou expect more than a sketch of answer. But the tension and the rhztm of fight scene are more than good points of a nice horror.
