SlashU Podcast
Nick and Andy sit down and dissect the campy slasher movies from the late 70s to today. We try to find the cheesiest, campiest, and sometimes forgotten slasher/horror movies. Some are so bad that they're amazing. Others are just plain bad. Once in awhile we find an excellent one. We'll tell you about all of them here on our goofy little podcast.
