Guitars & Dreams: Slumber Party Massacre II Under the Microscope + Cornfields, Clowns & Slasher Payoffs: Why Clown in a Cornfield Nails It
Episode 2
Monday, 10 November, 2025
Plug in your guitars and sharpen your sickles. Cabin of Horrors is taking you on a deep dive into two slashers that prove horror can be weird, loud, and totally unforgettable.First, we crank up the volume with Slumber Party Massacre II (1987). The surreal, rock ’n’ roll sequel that traded realism for dream logic and a killer with a power-drill guitar. We’ll unravel how writer-director Deborah Brock turned a feminist satire into a neon-soaked nightmare filled with glitter, gore, and the blurred lines between trauma and fantasy. Expect behind-the-scenes chaos, production secrets, and the film’s bizarre but lasting influence on horror’s stranger side.Then we head deep into the Midwest for a modern bloodbath: Clown in a Cornfield by Adam Cesare. A slasher novel that revitalized the subgenre for a new generation. We’ll explore how Cesare channels the energy of ’80s slashers into sharp social commentary, small-town paranoia, and one terrifying mascot with a killer sense of justice. This is slasher fiction done right. Brutal, smart, and packed with heart-pounding payoffs.
