It appears we have a winner! Here were the results:
Friday the 13th: 5 (hammerfan, realdealblues, tiberius, MichaelMyers, and Freak)
Prom Night: 0
My Bloody Valentine: 1 (Anthropophagus)
Sleepaway Camp: 3 (fortunato, Giganticface, and V)
A Nightmare on Elm Street: 6 (The Villain, Rela1024, Sculpt, bamahorrorfan87, roshiq, and natedog722)
Thus, A Nightmare on Elm Street is the winner for the Slasher section!
This would have been a real difficult one because these are all really good movies. I would probably have gone with A Nightmare on Elm Street because not only did it create a major movie icon and was directed by Wes Craven (my favorite horror movie director), but it was just a very unique horror film. It used the slasher formula, while taking it in a completely different direction. Also, unlike many of the other slashers (including and especially Friday the 13th, which is a series that I really enjoy too), it did not focus on body count, but on developing the characters and telling an interesting, unique story.
