List of slasher films
Listcruft. This would be better served as a category, and in fact one for "Horror films" already exists. If "slasher films" are considered distinct from horror films, then maybe categorize this; otherwise, the "horror films" category already covers this article's purpose. -- H·G (words/works) 19:54, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Weak Keep, as a distinct subgenre of "Horror films." Not all horror films are slasher films, but all slasher films are horror films. However I would not be opposed to categorizing this info instead of using the list format. Just don't delete it entirely. Scorpiondollprincess 20:57, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment - Oh I definitely agree, we need to keep this sort of info. I just feel that a category does the job better. -- H·G (words/works) 23:22, 17 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Delete per nom. This is what categories are for. I also wonder if there isn't a bit of POV involved in determining whether or not a film is "horror" or "slasher". Agent 86 21:23, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete should be replaced by a category. No useful content in list itself.  Eluchil404 21:27, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
