List by top10Have you ever suffered a bad cut? If so, you may have found the experience rather disturbing. Seeing your flesh cut up is not exactly fun.

And the actual scenes are often gruesome, and blood filled. Being cut is something most people can relate to. Further, when murders happen in real life, knives are often involved. That’s why many of the most terrifying horror films are slashers. Feel free to check out the top ten slasher horror flicks below but make sure you’re mentally prepared.
