Slayer is a brilliantly executed independent film with an interesting and "satisfyingly unsatisfying" frank and no-frills approach to horror and violence.
What's special about Slayer is its use of realism in a generally sensationalized and fantasy-heavy film genre. Peduzzi crafts fight scenes and violence that should be "cool" but shoots them with realistic sound effects and no music in a way that makes you sympathetic to the pain of the "bad guys" and forces a reexamination of the traditional cinematic glamorization of violence. I've never seen this concept executed as effectively as in this film.
The film also showcases Ed Peduzzi's virtuosic ability to tell a story through technical aspects of the medium of film. With colors that look like moving impressionist paintings of New England as often as deep crimson blood and gore. The animated-collage dream sequence is also a highlight.
Thumbs, toes, and all other available body parts up.
