Brad of The Daily Rotation wrote, "The leaves are changing, pumpkins are being carved, the harvest is in the air, and the Halloween season is in full swing. It must be October. Soon the television will be flooded with horror movies from channels that repeat the exact same features they’ve been showing for the last decade. Why? Easy ratings? Don’t fix what isn’t broken? People don’t like change? It’s a combination of everything, but for the adventurous fan who’s tired of watching the original Halloween or AMC’s Fearfest, there’s a huge cache of fun slashers from the 80′s that will never be shown on mainstream television."

Like SleepAway Camp, pretty sure I've watched it and just forgot it.
The Mutilator and Just Before Dawn, although JBD sounds familiar, so I may have seen that one too I just don't remember.
Everybody has seen those.
Oh yeah, the Burning is my favorite one on this list, so I'd definitely check it out. It's on Netflix instant right now!
And April Fool's Day and Happy Birthday To Me... were both very main stream.
A lot of these would only be hidden to those that aren't very old. Not because they aren't horror fans.
And when you mention Slasher films in general... you aren't talking about the Average Joe. You are talking about people who get a kick from a good... well... hack and slash.
"10 Slasher Films You've Never Seen" is an absolute... the title should have been better set at '10 Slasher Films that might have slipped past you?' because the absolute of "You've Never Seen" is well... just wrong.
I'm a fan of MBV3D, but I can't stand Prom Night, due to its PG-13 rating.
Never saw the originals for either films, but have heard of them through the horror grapevine as classics.
