Last week we talked about how you can throw a Saw movie series themed Halloween party. This week I’d like to talk about how you can throw a slasher film/slasher themed Halloween party. This type of party works well for teen parties and for adult parties.
To start with you will want to research the film genre of slasher films. Blogs like Slashfilm are great resources for slasher film information. While you research come up with a list of classic slasher films and recent slasher film releases.
Select a focus for your slasher film party. You can focus on the knives used, a slasher film movie series or a specific movie. This focus will guide your decoration selection.
Slasher movie posters are going to work well as the backdrop for your Halloween party. You can even give out slasher film movie posters for party favors and game prizes. Don’t forget to use the movie poster as your guide for color choices and party props.
There are a lot of fun games that you can play at a slasher film Halloween party. One fun game is a variation on the old kid’s game of pin the tale on the donkey. For the adult version you will be stabbing organs on killer.
If you are interested in a very slasher-esque party, consider serving your appetizers and treats on large knife shaped platters. You can even wrap these platters in aluminum foil to give them a shiny knife blade appearance.
