For anyone who enjoys the spine-tingling chill of horror movie soundtracks, “Slasher” is going to be right up your alley. The song provides an ambiance worthy of a chase scene. Additionally, the accompanying image is terrifying while serving as a homage to a show of the same name. Clearly, it’s difficult to turn a hip-hop song into something genuinely scary, but it seems easy here. There are lyrics like “I’m the nightmare on elm street, try to snooze on this, I don’t think you know what I did last summer” and “I know these clowns know I’m IT, call me pennywise, I see your eyes little boy you lookin’ petrified.” With references to films including Psycho, Friday The 13th, and A Nightmare on Elm Street, Kurst’s terrifying creation is the perfect listen for any horror movie fan. So, press play and try to stay alive against this “Slasher.”
