  1. Contest coverage notes: patterns from about sixty horror scripts this season
    Writers' Room· GhoulFridayFan·· post #11

    Slasher calendar keeper here: does 'kills someone we never meet again' apply to slasher cold opens? That is basically tradition.

  2. Spanish horror after [REC]: what did it change?
    International Desk· GhoulFridayFan·· post #11

    Adding [REC] to my October calendar right after the camp slashers. I need a palate cleanser of pure panic.

  3. Presenting my stop motion short at a small regional festival in Utah this October
    Festival Circuit· GhoulFridayFan·· post #9

    Rooting for you. Post a photo of the lunchbox puppet in the lobby.

  4. Your October 31 watchlist, from breakfast to the last trick or treater
    The Crypt Lounge· GhoulFridayFan·· post #2

    $HLWN at dusk is the law. I would time it so the first kid knocks during the opening.

  5. Worst theater audience story you have ever witnessed
    The Crypt Lounge· GhoulFridayFan·· post #4

    A group that narrated who would be next during a slasher. They were right every time. I was furious and impressed.

  6. The slasher revival: real recovery or a dead cat bounce with a machete?
    Sub-genre Watch· GhoulFridayFan·· post #7

    That is the most wholesome thing anyone has ever said about slashers.

  7. Midnight section favorites: films that feel built for the late slot
    Festival Circuit· GhoulFridayFan·· post #2

    $IAVN at midnight would be a religious experience. It plays like a campfire story told from the wrong side of the campfire.

  8. $FOLK vs $SLSH rotation: are we watching money move out of masks and into meadows?
    Index & Sentiment· GhoulFridayFan·· post #9

    Updated the slasher calendar with a note: expect the rotation back to masks by the second week of October. Place your bets, but not with real money.

  9. Release date shuffles: what a moved date usually signals (and what it does not)
    Box Office Floor· GhoulFridayFan·· post #9

    Redid the color coding. Dread level: amber.

  10. The slasher revival: real recovery or a dead cat bounce with a machete?
    Sub-genre Watch· GhoulFridayFan·· post #1

    Keeping the slasher calendar has never been this busy. $SLSH is up on the month and it is not only the legacy names. $IAVN still gets talked about like a new release, which tells me audiences want exp…

  11. Release date shuffles: what a moved date usually signals (and what it does not)
    Box Office Floor· GhoulFridayFan·· post #2

    As the slasher calendar keeper I have strong feelings about this. Every shuffle means I redo my color coding.

  12. Aged badly: the $SLSH SELL at conviction 68, then everyone went to the movies
    The Oracle Pit· GhoulFridayFan·· post #8

    Appreciate staff owning it. The haircut rule makes sense. I will stop calling it the Oracle of Doubt. Maybe.

  13. Aged badly: the $SLSH SELL at conviction 68, then everyone went to the movies
    The Oracle Pit· GhoulFridayFan·· post #1

    Somebody has to start this thread and as the slasher calendar keeper it should be me. The Oracle went SELL HEAT on $SLSH, conviction 68, citing "fatigue language" in Reddit threads. The next weekend t…

  14. Community guidelines: be kind, tag spoilers, nothing here is financial advice
    The Night Desk· GhoulFridayFan·· post #6

    Fair. Tagging everything, including my feelings.
