TORONTO – Hollywood Suite announced Friday that it will host the exclusive premiere of the fifth season of horror anthology series Slasher with back-to-back episodes on April 6.
Produced by Shaftesbury, the new season will be aired Thursday’s at 9 p.m. EST and on demand exclusively on Hollywood Suite.
“The new season takes the Slasher franchise back in time to the late 19th century with Eric McCormack as Basil Garvey, a charismatic tycoon whose success is only rivaled by his ruthlessness, as he oversees a city on the cusp of a new century, and a social upheaval that will see its streets run red with blood,” a press release description says.
“There’s a killer on the loose, but instead of targeting the poor and downtrodden like Jack the Ripper, The Widow is meting out justice against the rich and powerful,” it adds. “The only person standing in the way of this killer is the newly promoted detective, Kenneth Rijkers, whose ironclad belief in justice may wind up being yet another victim of The Widow.”
Slasher: Fresh and Blood is currently available for viewing on Hollywood Suite.
