Female Slashers?
Are there any?
There are planty of "witchy women" like Carrie or Tamara There are tons of female revenge flicks like Kill Bill, Sex and Fury, They Call Her One Eye, etc But are there any female slasher flicks? Would you want to see one? What would you want out of one? Sleepaway Camp is close as is the original Friday 13th - but they both play on the idea that the killer is a man before revealing it's a woman. And yes, I am openly asking for ideas here - seems there is a real gap in the market, which is really rare in the horror genre. ***thank you, puppet for mentioning the idea***

female slasher dont work they are practical a female serial killer isnt as common as a man however if you do it then watch urban legends number 1.. she has a reason whereas many male slashers are acting without cause
if u do a women slasher she has to have a reason such as revenge on a lover, ect ect

so men can be pure evil, but women can't?
I'm finding that one a little difficult to swallow. It's overly simplistic. Why not a female leatherface-type?

Deep Red had a female slasher.
i think a few of the other italian slashers were female as well. If i can remember any of them I'll add them. The reason i remember this was the huge continuity gap between the masked killer - glimpsed as an obviously larger man - to the female once she is unmasked. also - Fri 13 - the origional was a female slasher

No i'm not young and naive i watch horror films nearly every night and i'm currently studying Media at college however i dont think a female would work as a serial killer without a purpose she needs a reason to kill
thats my personal opinion and if u look through history you will see that many female serial killers DIDNT act alone they had a partner and if they did act alone they had a reason to kill yeah i have stuided this and read many many books on this
