X-Ray (1981) Hospital Slasher Deep Dive | Jessica Alba’s Netflix Surprise & Howling’s Wildest Entry

This week on Summer Slash, Johnny Spoiler checks into the ER for a cult ‘80s slasher that bleeds hospital horror: X-Ray (aka Hospital Massacre, 1981). Starring Barbi Benton, this movie delivers everything from acid facials to creepy test results—but does it deserve a “Binge Now” or “Never”?

But first, the headlines:

  • Jessica Alba sells an R-rated female comedy pitch to Netflix (Idle Hands, anyone?)

  • Jonah Hill & Kristen Wiig team up for a sibling comedy about being cut off from their parents’ money

  • Deadpool officially crashes Avengers: Doomsday

  • TMNT gets a 4K box set & theatrical re-release (yes, even Part 3)

Then Johnny dives deep into:

  • Movie of the Week: X-Ray / Hospital Massacre – stalkers, hospitals, and slasher mayhem

  • Favorite Bits: acid baths, knives in stomachs, and a little too much “Playboy” exploitation

  • Staff Picks: Howling: New Moon Rising – possibly the worst werewolf movie ever, but hey, it’s still got line dancing

  • Alien Franchise Rant: why modern Alien movies focus too much on androids instead of working-class humans fighting for survival

⚡ Plus: fan service shoutouts (Mountain Dew pineapple flavor test ✅), a rundown of the Alien timeline, and closing teases for next week’s horror picks: Drive-In Massacre and Amityville Dollhouse.

If you love slashers, cult horror, movie rants, and the occasional honky-tonk werewolf, you’re in the right place.
