other classic movies you would advise


I watched this with my friends and what a movie, maybe a little lack in blood but great simple charectors and didnt waste time trying to push a story that lets be honest we've all seen a hundred times. any other movies that you think are like this leave your sugestions;
I also loved the sleepaway camps, massacre at central high, gutterball, slumber party massacre,cheerleader massacre, bacheleor party massacre prom night and well you should see the trend. i also recently purchased scream bloody murder, maniac, house on sorority hill and planing on getting bloody birthday, any others should look out for?
thnks!

Try Black Christmas. It is considered the first of its kind. Also if you love the slasher genre, I just watched Behind the Mask: the rise of Leslie Vernon. It really was incredible.

There are plenty of movies I would recommend.

BLACK CHRISTMAS has already been suggested. The plot concept is the same as SORORITY HOUSE MASSACRE but executed somewhat differently. IMO, BLACK CHRISTMAS is a very sub-par movie that fails to make the grade.

Anyhow, other slashers I would recommend:

MADMAN
PRANKS
THE NOSTRIL PICKER
MY BLOODY VALENTINE (original is sub-par IMO but people like it, and remember to check out the remake)
JUST BEFORE DAWN (another movie that is sub-par IMO but has gained a cult following)
NIGHTMARE MAKER (no official DVD available at the time of writing)
NIGHTMARE IN A DAMAGED BRAIN
TOURIST TRAP
INTRUDER (1989)
DELIRIA (1987)
APRIL FOOL'S DAY (1986)
THE PROWLER (1981)
SILENT NIGHT, DEADLY NIGHT (1984)
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME (1981)
SWEET 16 (1983)
HELL NIGHT (1981)
URBAN LEGEND (1998)
CURTAINS (1983)
THE TOOLBOX MURDERS (1978)
TOOLBOX MURDERS (2004)
DON'T GO IN THE HOUSE (1980)
VISITING HOURS (1982)
976-EVIL (1989)
HOSPITAL MASSACRE (1982)
HE KNOWS YOU'RE ALONE (1980)
MARDI GRAS MASSACRE (1978)
SLAUGHTER HIGH (1986)
THE DRILLER KILLER
THE COMEBACK (not really a slasher but has two very vicious murders and an excellent atmosphere)

I note you've seen the howler of a movie known as BACHELOR PARTY MASSACRE. So for a laugh, the following slasher movies should entertain:

THE NAIL GUN MASSACRE (killer cracks awful puns after he kills just like the killer in BACHELOR PARTY MASSACRE)
CHOPPING MALL
DRIVE-IN MASSACRE
GRIM WEEKEND (aka S.I.C.K.)
MR. JINGLES
DON'T GO IN THE WOODS
INSEMINOID

Since you've seen MANIAC, I'd recommend THE LAST HORROR FILM, which also stars Joe Spinell. And HENRY, PORTRAIT OF A SERIAL KILLER is not too dissimilar.

Which version of SCREAM BLOODY MURDER? There are two - one from 1973 along with a FRIDAY THE 13TH clone made in 2000.
