Slumber Party Massacre Reimagining First Look Revealed
A new take on the fan-favorite
Slumber Party Massacrefranchise was announced earlier this year, with the very first look at the new take on the concept being unveiled by
Bloody Disgusting. The original film debuted in 1982, focusing on a group of friends having a sleepover as they are stalked by an escaped convict with a power drill. While the film was surely a stereotypical slasher in many respects, it also found ways to satirize the growing subgenre. The new take on
Slumber Party Massacre is expected to debut on SYFY this October as part of their 31 Days of Halloween programming event.

If you are a horror fan, chances are you ve at least heard of the name
Slumber Party Massacre, a 1982 slasher film that had a newly escaped serial killer targeting a group of high school girls with a power drill. Sure, the concept is a little strange, but the film itself plays up some fun horror moments in-between the cliche direction that 80s horror thrived in.

The film is one that I highly doubt people expected to see continued or rebooted in any capacity, yet it looks like a contemporary reimagining will be headed our way soon for Syfy. Shout! Factory (who developed and produced) is set to handle distribution, and Deadline reported that the film wrapped shooting in South Africa just last month.
