SLASHER FEST '85 is set in the fictional world of Carpenter County. A back woods little town whose way of life is about to get rocked by the arrival of the 1st Annual Slasher Fest Horror Convention. Scream Queen legend, Jamie Saxon, has had a bit of a troubled past. The survivor of an obsessed fan from two years prior has ultimately decided to move forward with her career. Aided by her boyfriend, Chase O'Bannon, the duo attends Slasher Fest with hopes of a fresh start. Unbeknownst to the couple, Maynard, the quintessential bogeyman, has stalked them to the event, leaving a trail of blood and guts in his wake. Unfortunately, Maynard is not the only entity they will have to contend with. The Wretched, an evil supernatural force has also arrived on the scene, and literally bringing with them Hell on Earth. Through the course of one infernal night, Jamie and her fellow survivors must band together in order to thwart off the terrifying invaders before they become causalities of life imitating art.
