For several years Joe Dante’s Trailer’s From Hell site has hosted genre movie trailers with commentaries by filmmakers. In anticipation of our Thursday night CineMacabre screening of Slumber Party Massacre, on 35mm, featuring a Skype interview with director Amy Holden Jones (details here), here’s the trailer for the film with a commentary by Holden Jones herself.

And if you’re a fan of the series, don’t forget to check out our back issue (RM#106) with a feature on the entire series by April!

In honour of Women in Horror Month, this month’s CineMacabre Movie Night is a 35mm presentation of Amy Holden Jones’ SLUMBER PARTY MASSACRE – THIS THURSDAY, February 16 @ 9:30 p.m. at The Toronto Underground Cinema (186 Spadina Avenue – Toronto). Written by acclaimed feminist author Rita Mae Brown, the classic ’80s splat flick both follows the rules of the subgenre and parodies them as a killer with a huge, phallic drill stalks a group of nubile young women heaving a sleepover.

One night only! Killer prizes! Plus, a discussion of the film with director Amy Holden Jones via Skype!
