Scream Factory: Behind the Mask – the Rise of Leslie Vernon Coming March 27th

Scream

Scream Factory has managed to piss me off.  How you ask?  Well, putting out more and more great movies with their Collector’s Editions.  Yep, I just bought the Blu Ray copy of Behind the Mask, but thanks to Scream Factory, I am going to have to double dip.  I’m only joking, don’t worry, I am not pissed at all.  I am glad to see this, somewhat hidden gem getting a proper release and some respect it deserves.

If you haven’t seen Behind the Mask, do yourself a favor and watch it soon.  It is truly a love letter to the 80s slasher sub genre.

I have been watching horror films since I was 6 years old. The story, one Saturday night, my mom and I were watching movies and she fell asleep on the couch. We had the channel set on HBO and the movie we were watching ended and the next one, A Nightmare on Elm Street 2: Freddy’s Revenge. This was some time in 1986. I watched then entire film, I was sitting on the edge of my seat. When my mom woke, she asked me what just ended and I told her, “Freddy”. That was all I talked about for weeks and finally she broke down and rented more horror films for me. She rented, the Texas Chainsaw Massacre part 2, Re-Animator, Friday the 13th VI: Jason Lives and Halloween II. I watched all and fell in love with horror films forever. 5 Horror Films to Watch Inferno (1980) A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984) The Beyond (1981) Friday the 13th VI: Jason Lives (1986) Horror of Dracula (1958)
