I absolutely love this movie.The movie is just downright creepy.When I was going through high school.I rented a ton of horror films and this was one of them.A few years later i see it at a video store.I had to have this film.I was very lucky at the time.I was going out with a girl whose friend worked at a video store and we set up a fake account.I have that movie and a old copy of terror train.I will never let my copy of Slaughter away from my sight.If you do own a copy of this 80's classic check out the prices the movie is going for on Amazon.It is going for like 90 dollars.I hope and pray someday that this will get a dvd release by anchor bay or even better a Dvd release.

I was lucky enough to pick it up on vhs a month ago for 1.99 at the local video stre. What do you mean by current dvd release? To the best of my knowledge, that is a unathorized, cheap transfer/copy someone is doing, and totally not worth spending my money on.

I want anchor bay to release this as a 2 disc set.I mean even a release would be awesome.You how Vhs tapes are these day.They deterioate very badly.

we should email anchor bay then, companies like that sometimes take suggestions, and they do respond sometimes. brandon_thy_name got a response about the dvd for the classic slasher- Pieces

Why the hell doesn't that Stallone kid release this piece of slasher gold?

See you in the funny papers.

Sage Stallone should have this released under his Grindhouse Releasing label.

GO SAGE GO!

Hey, even if it is a burnt dvd, as long as it plays in a DVD player, it's worth a few bucks!

I also have a copy of Slaughter High on VHS which I hold very dear, LOL. I got mine off eBay many, many, many years ago for like 2 bucks.
