Night of the Slasher is a horror-thriller film that was released in 2015. The movie stars Lily Berlina as Jenelle, a teenage girl who decides to spend the night home alone and watch horror movies. She has a plan to attract the attention of a serial killer, played by Scott Javore, in order to fight him off and prove that she is capable of defending herself. Adam Lesar plays the role of the prom night boy.

The movie begins with a clichéd horror scene in which a group of teenagers are out in the woods, drinking and having fun. The attractive blonde girl, Jenelle, is the only one who takes the opportunity to leave the car and go for a walk in the woods. Soon after, the group of friends becomes victims of a ruthless killer who slaughters them all in front of Jenelle's eyes.

The movie then fast forwards to graduation day, where Jenelle is giving her valedictorian speech. After the ceremony, Jenelle decides to stay home alone while her parents are away on a weekend retreat. She plans to watch horror movies all night long, in hopes that the serial killer who murdered her friends might attack her.

As the night progresses, she sets up traps around the house and lures the killer in using various tactics. While some of the scenes are reminiscent of other horror classics, Night of the Slasher adds a new twist to the genre with its innovative use of special effects that create a fast-paced and energetic atmosphere that will keep you on edge throughout the film.

The movie has a unique approach to storytelling, as it is shot in a single continuous take, with no cuts or edits. This technique creates a sense of urgency and immediacy that draws the viewer into the action and keeps them engaged. The camera follows Jenelle as she moves from room to room, setting up traps and confronting the killer.

One of the standout features of the movie is its use of cinematography. The film is shot entirely with a steadicam and features several long, unbroken shots that require precise choreography from the actors and crew. The camera moves seamlessly from one room to the next, capturing the action in real-time, and allowing the viewer to feel as if they are in the house with Jenelle.

The performances from the main actors are also noteworthy. Lily Berlina gives a convincing performance as Jenelle, combining vulnerability with determination in her fight against the killer. Scott Javore portrays the killer with an eerie, detached quality that makes him all the more terrifying. Adam Lesar gives a memorable performance as the innocent prom night boy who becomes caught up in the events of the evening.

Overall, Night of the Slasher is a well-made and entertaining horror-thriller movie that combines old-school horror tropes with innovative techniques to create a unique viewing experience. The continuous take approach used for the film is immersive and adds an unusual twist to the already intriguing plot. It is a must-watch for fans of the genre who are looking for something fresh and unique.
