Slaughter Sinema 2 (HHN 33)

[Mashmingingmasher77]

I really hope one of the 8 films is a room dedicated to The Foul Fists of Doctor Faustus as a nice call back to the original house!

I would imagine one of the films may be a sequel from the first. Would be smart.

My god I’m so excited for this.

I didn’t think it would actually happen.
Midnight snack 3?

 

[PrimalScream1996]

I think one thing we can possibly guarantee making an appearances in some form of way in the house are the Yetis lmao.

So you're saying....that the codenames can be related to the house this year?

Except the codename wasn’t donut.

 

[kingcooger]

Bring on a Hive 2 room!

I still wish that one day they would have a Bloodengutz/Slaughter Sinema crossover where he secretly invites all his enemies to the drive in, traps all who show up, and kill them in the ways of the movies (think Vincent Price’s Theater of Blood). We walk through each movie with the transition being a dead bodily and Bloodengutz announcing the next feature.

 

[Ahmanet]

Very hyped, loved the original.

Hoping this sequel has a bigger budget and plenty of merchandise like movie posters!

 

[HHNSK]

I’m just excited to see what new trailers they’ll be making and what surprising little nuggets they’re reference to next.

The trailers in 2018 made for a decent wait in the que and IMO really contributed to the overall success of the house. I’m with you on this!

 

[JunoSynth]

The original is my favorite house of all time so I'm super excited for this house and year already! Like others have said, hopefully the drive-in returns with a few sequel trailers from the original. It also looks like this will be in one of the new tents which potentially could make for a bigger, longer version of the original.

I cannot wait to be immersed again in the original and creative B-movie universe they have created for us.


The Heavy Metal Hell 3D character's outfit reminds me of Suicide from Return of the Living Dead. lol

 

[HHN Maddux]

Except the codename wasn’t donut.

So I'm just now noticing this, is Sprung 3 not our spot then?

 

[grlhowl]

I figured this had a chance at a soundstage, since the original is such a fan favorite, though I know it wasn't really a rumored location for it.

 

[trinitron7]

Now that we have the Goblins house officially announced, and it doesn't look black/white as originally rumored, I think the b/w house will be a Sinema Segment. Maybe Dead Exposure 3?

 

[PrimalScream1996]

Thinking about what @Legacy said a bit back about filming in the Dueling Dragons house, it should be fun to see them making a b-movie trailer for Dueling Dragons or something similar just using the house similar to how they how filmed scenes inside the HIVE and Scarecrow houses for their trailers.

Bringing over the discussion from Goblin's Feast, it sounds like Slaughter Sinema will be returning to Sprung Tent 2, and it's not going in one of the newer tents.

If that's the case, one of the reasons why could be intricately unique to Slaughter Sinema itself, the Drive-In screen to show the trailers. Anyone who's gone through the original can tell you, that Drive-In screen was the perfect setup for the house. And due to how Sprung 2's queue layout is, it allowed you to watch the trailers for a good amount of time before you entered the house, and not every location has a queue which allows you to look at the facade for a good while before you enter. (Best I can think of is the newer parade building, which is no longer available. Or the MIB tent which is definitely not available.)

That is exactly what my concern was when I found out it may be in one of the newer tents. The drive-in scene with the trailers playing was a huge part of the charm of this house. If it needs to be at the same location to keep it then I'm all for it!

With Slaughter Sinema 2 officially announced, we are approaching a crossroads. The first Slaughter Sinema in 2018 introduced Swamp Yeti's to the event with it's final room, "Attack of the Swamp Yeti". Since then, we have seen the Yeti's return in both 2019, with "Yeti: Terror of the Yukon", and 2023 with "Yeti: Campground Kills".

That makes three major houses since their first appearance 6 years ago. That's a lot more than most original characters get, and rivals certain headlining IP's like Stranger Things or Halloween.

My question is: Do you want to see the Yeti's return in Slaughter Sinema 2? Are they overused at this point? Have they reached classic original character status like Nightingales or HHN Bear, and are welcome to pop in whenever they are warranted? Should they have a full room, "Attack of the Swamp Yeti 2"? Should they have the chaser scare and nothing else? I'm legitimately curious on how this community feels about the Yeti's and their use at the event broadly!

EDIT: Darn! I was curious about how the poll would go! Mods and Brian, I would love to see a Poll feature added to posts itself if we can't have subthreads like the Yeti one!

I hope to not see yetis again tbh. Maybe at most a brief appearance like Faustus, but not one of the main features. I kinda also don’t want to see this house kickoff another series like SS1 did, but who knows I could change my mind if the concept is fun enough. With that said, I would like to see yetis for an anniversary house appearance in the future.

 

[JunoSynth]

I would like to see them return in the trailers but not the house itself. I rather they use that space for all new ideas.

Not only that, but already thinking about how we could potentially see the start of another popular original franchise in here! Yetis with SS1, what could it be in SS2 (if any)?

I can see an ongoing trend of SS houses that creates potential spin-offs. They are only limited to their imagination and creativity. I guess public interest too. Lol

This reminds me of how Machete was a spin-off of the movie Grindhouse. Wonder of that was part of the influence of the Yeti houses.


Some things I would like to see:
I would love to see a Leave it to Cleaver 2 trailer.
Schittie's Kidz 2 trailer.
Dark night of the scarecrow influenced movie section.
Sssssssss or Squirm influenced movie section.
