My personal favourite slasher movie from the above list is Halloween also,John Carpenter is a genius who almost single handily ( credit also must go to Wes Craven and Sean Cunningham) created a sub-genre in its own ...The Slasher Flick.
My next favourite slasher movie is Psycho and Then Scream.
im not sure if silence of the lambs should be catorgorized with those movies, but no one has cooking tips like dr lector so i pick lambs. and where nightmare on elm street those were without a doubt the funnest to watch, i remember watching those and not being able to wait to see how freddy would kill his victims.
have you seen the last couple movies of john carpenter and wes craven? what happend to them, they used to be respectable horror movie giants now there becomming more like a joke

i dont think u can consider silence of the lambs a slasher movie it sorta messes u up phscyologicly more then ne thing but there r some parts in the lambs that r pretty gruesome but not a slasher movie at all but now that i just looked at rages response i am just repating his words lol but way to go rages u think like i think
i think me and evil dead and u have the most in common for some reason cause we always seem to agree on everything and u r soo true great minds do think alike
halloween definetly, i agree john carpenter is a genius. he invented the evil murder before jason (1980) or freddy (1984) halloween first appeared in 1978, freddy and jason are just spin offs. micheal has the scariest everything, music mask, and way about him, how he just admires his work, i love it!!!!!
