Prom Night is dreadfully boring....or is that just me? ;)
Oh well, my point was, not that slashers never have an element of mystery, just that a slasher film doesn't always have that element, unlike a giallo film (at least in the ones I have seen). In slasher films, it seems like any mystery involved is usually secondary to the death scenes, the violence. The question for me is often "who is going to die next?" with most slasher films, rather than "who is behind the mask?".
