10 Awesome Slasher Films You've Probably Never Seen
5. My Little Eye
So, this is a little bit of a cheat. My Little Eye probably doesnt technically count as a slasher. Yes, lots of young people die, and yes, they all make fairly stupid decisions throughout the film, but its a little more engineered than most. Although saying that, The Cabin in the Woods counts as a slasher, so lets take a cue from that. My Little Eye was made as a sort of response to reality shows like Big Brother, and is about five people who agree to live together in a house for six months, whilst being filmed at all times, for $1million. Everythings been going swimmingly until Bradley Cooper shows up as a sketchy drifter with a backpack covered in blood, but the contestants dont sweat it because theyre all a bit thick. Thats when people start to die. At first its just a simple murder thats staged as a suicide, so the others dont panic so much. Then it gets a bit brutal. My Little Eye is a damn smart film that recognisably British in execution, and a great antidote to (or example of?) reality TV gone mad.
