On this episode Robert Monell and Re-Gor discuss three excellent slasher films: Bay of Blood (1971), The Mutilator (1984), and Nightmare (1981). We delve into these films and have a fun discussion about Mario Bava, Bay of Blood’s influence on later slasher films, and more! Bay of Blood and The Mutilator can be found on streaming services, but Nightmare is a little harder to find, existing primarily on DVD. Also, check out the newspaper ads and reviews I found for the films in the show notes on the website!
