It depends on the slasher. Wes Craven made the excellent 'Scream' and the supernatural slasher 'A Nightmare On Elm Street' (1984). He filmed a documentary in The White House when Bill Clinton was in office and was reported to have voted for Barack Obama. He was often castigated by the conservative press and called a vile, reprehensible, subversive communist back in the 1970s. John Carpenter was/is a huge lefty too, and it was Halloween that kicked off the 80s slasher craze. I think it was incidental that the most innocent girl was the one to survive that film, and 80s movies just copied it because it worked. |
