"Slasher," an eight episode, one-hour psychological thriller series
"With Slasher, I wanted to tell a modern-day monster story — but instead of a mythological creature, the "monster" in our series is all too human," said Aaron Martin, creator, writer and executive producer, Slasher. "The series is a fusion of some of my favorite thriller genres — the classic slasher film, the contemporary murder mystery and the timeless works of my favorite crime writer, Agatha Christie."
Katie McGrath ("Jurassic World," "Dracula," "Merlin") stars as Sarah Bennett, a young woman who returns to the small town where she was born, only to find herself the centerpiece in a series of horrifying copycat murders based on the widely known, grisly killings of her parents. As the murders escalate, long-buried secrets are revealed, making everyone around her a suspect ... or a victim. Sarah finds herself questioning everything and everyone around her, including her husband Dylan (Brandon Jay McLaren, "Graceland," "The Killing"), her grandmother Brenda Merritt (Wendy Crewson, "Saving Hope," "Revenge"), family friend Cam Henry (Steve Byers, "The Man in the High Castle") and the town's police chief, Iain Vaughn (Dean McDermott, "Ecstasy," "CSI: Crime Scene Investigation").
Additional cast include Mary Walsh ("This Hour Has 22 Minutes"), Enuka Okuma ("Rookie Blue"), Erin Karpluk ("Being Erica"), Patrick Garrow ("Hannibal," "Bitten"), Christopher Jacot ("Degrassi: The Next Generation"), Mayko Nguyen ("Defiance," "Cracked"), Rob Stewart ("Killjoys," "Suits"), Hannah Endicott-Douglas ("Casino Jack"), Shawn Ahmed ("MsLabelled," "Paranormal Investigators"), Jessica Sipos ("Dark Matter"), Jefferson Brown ("Rookie Blue," "Degrassi: The Next Generation"), Mark Ghanimé ("Helix"), Dylan Taylor ("The Lizzie Borden Chronicles," "Covert Affairs"), Booth Savage ("Mr. D."), Victoria Snow ("Cra$h & Burn"), Sabrina Grdevich ("Skins") and Rainbow Sun Francks ("The Listener").
Developed and produced by Shaftesbury in association with Super Channel and Chiller, "Slasher" is written and created by Aaron Martin ("Killjoys," "Being Erica") and directed by Craig David Wallace ("Todd and the Book of Pure Evil"). Aaron Martin, Christina Jennings and Scott Garvie are executive producers. Casting by Stephanie Gorin. Content Media Corporation is the distributor. "Slasher" is funded with the participation of the COGECO Program Development Fund.
