Why do slasher movies remain popular across generations?

Slashers are like the never-ending game of tag you love at recess, but with more screaming and fewer laughs.

Every time there's a new slasher movie, it’s like starting a fresh game of tag with new friends. The rules might change, sometimes the killer has more powers, or they hide better, but the fun stays the same.

And just like you love playing tag because it feels fast and wild, slashers keep people watching because they feel scary and thrilling, even if the killer isn’t magic, they’re just really good at hiding.
