The slasher is not exactly the kind of genre that you associate with romance.
The slasher is not exactly the kind of genre that you associate with romance.
Nevertheless, Offscreen has managed to find two obscure 1980s gems for their upcoming B to Z evening at Cinematek that they are presenting under the title Slasher Lovers. In My Bloody Valentine, slow-dancing teenagers at a Valentine’s Day ball are confronted with an uninvited guest in the form of a miner who had an accident twenty years earlier and is now out for revenge... In Fade to Black, a film nerd who gets bullied every day falls for a Marilyn Monroe lookalike. When she rejects him, he loses it, dresses up like his favourite film heroes, and takes revenge on everybody who humiliated him.
B TO Z, 29/6, 19.00 & 21.00, Cinematek
