Slasher

My Job as a slasher, being a used car salesperson, liquidator, doing these auction sales...people automatically assume whatever I say, whatever comes out of my mouth, is a lie. Meet Michael Bennett, better know as "The Slasher," a raspy-voiced family man who exudes so much nervous energy that he smokes two cigarettes at a time and can hardly stand still. When auto dealerships are desperate to dump their stale inventory as quickly as possible, the California-based Bennett is flown all over the country to slash prices and clear entire lots within a few short days. Director John Landis ("The Blues Brothers," "Animal House," "An American Werewolf in London") brilliantly turns his comedic eye on one particularly off-the-wall weekend in the life of Bennett, as he's called upon to help a struggling dealership in Memphis, home to Elvis Presley and the bankruptcy capital of the world. Featuring a pitch-perfect Southern soul soundtrack, including forgotten favorites from Sam & Dave, Booker T. and the MG's and Otis Redding, "'Slasher' is a frenetic, fascinating and intensely funny look at one man so tightly wound, he couldn't be anything other than a salesman.
