Watch Slice and Dice: The Slasher Film Forever For Free

Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

One of my all time favorites.

Good concept, poorly executed.

Admirable film.

I managed to see this superb slasher documentary at the GFT in Glasgow where it played with Scott Spiegel's Intruder. The documentary produced by High Rising Productions covers slasher titles from Psycho right through to recent titles like the Maniac remake starring Elijah Wood. People familiar with High Rising's work on Arrow Video titles like Zombie Flesh Eaters, City of the Living Dead and Day of the Dead will not be disappointed with this treasure of a documentary. The doc features interviews with the likes of Corey Feldman, Tobe Hooper, Norman Warren, James Moran, Tom Holland & Mick Garris to name a few discussing the genesis of the slasher genre, the rules of the genre & the final girl.The work is clearly a labour of love for the High Rising team who made the documentary with no budget whilst working on special features for some of the many horror films they have worked on in recent years. The animation work between interviewee's and the subject matter covered is fantastic as is the music by the Acid Fascists in the title and end credits.Having been well received at film festivals around the globe the documentary is due to be released in May by 88 Films in the UK and has a plethora of extras. This is a must buy for all horror fan's!

I don't get the negative review and can only imagine that it was written by somebody who hasn't seen the film and has cast only a cursory glance over the synopsis. All of the interviewees have direct connections to movies featured in the documentary. Slice And Dice is an entertaining and informative film which skips along at a fair pace and the interviewees come across as enjoying themselves. And there were a few films mentioned which I hadn't seen, so had to seek out after the screening. A great addition for anyone with even a passing interest in horror movies.

So someone who does not appear to have seen the documentary in question appears to have spent time on Xmas Day abusing something out of a clear, personal vendetta for the makers. That is dedication at least. While SLICE AND DICE does not have Craven, Carpenter or Savini involved, it was done on little budget and contains some great speakers all the same. I doubt you can claim Tobe Hooper, Corey Feldman (who killed Jason!), Patrick Lussier, Joe Cardone (The Slayer), Jeffrey Reddick (creator of Final Destination who speaks at length about it being 'a slasher without the slasher') and Felissa Rose are not slasher film royalty. Anyway I have seen this and thought it was a smashing documentary. Its funny, paced well and looks good. Why not judge for yourself when it finally comes out on DVD?

Anyone who loves (or even likes) horror films, and in particular, the slasher film, should check out this excellent documentary. Loving put together by Calum Waddell and Naomi Holwill of High Rising Productions, it's informative and at times, tongue in cheek. A lot of the time, these kind of things take the form of critics and people you've probably never heard of, analysing the films being talked about, and can be hard to watch for the average man on the street. Slice And Dice caters for everyone by talking to actors, actresses, directors, etc who are all fans of these films themselves. Do yourselves a favour, and catch Slice And Dice: The Slasher Film Forever as soon as you can, you won't regret it. The film has been getting great reviews everywhere it's been shown, and will arrive on DVD in the UK in the coming months. P.S. "reviews" should be done by people who have actually seen something, and not by someone who hasn't seen it, and warning people off because they have a problem with the filmmakers.
