Cult horror anthology Slasher is returning for a brand new season courtesy of streaming service Shudder, for which it has recruited genre legend David Cronenberg.<\/p>\n

The director behind the likes of Scanners and Videodrome will play the patriarch of a wealthy family, who takes his relatives to an island where they must compete in challenges to have a hope of inheriting his huge fortune.<\/p>\n

Of course, with a title like Slasher: Flesh & Blood, it should come as no surprise that a masked attacker is also staying on the island, who starts picking them off one-by-one for reasons unknown.<\/p>\n

Previous seasons of Slasher have gone down well with horror fans, homaging such classics as Halloween<\/a> and Friday the 13th, so hopes are high for this latest entry.<\/p>\n

Read on for all the details on how to watch Slasher: Flesh & Blood in the UK, including release date and schedule.<\/p>\n

How to watch Slasher: Flesh & Blood in the UK<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Slasher: Flesh & Blood will be available to stream exclusively on horror service Shudder in the UK, with the first two episodes launching on\u00a0Thursday 12th August 2021<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The previous three seasons of Slasher are not available on Shudder, but can instead be found on Netflix if you\u2019re looking for a spooky series to dive into.<\/p>\n

That said, due to the anthology format of the show, you don\u2019t need to have seen the previous entries to enjoy Flesh & Blood, with each season telling a self-contained original story.<\/p>

Shudder has found a big name to lead the cast of Slasher: Flesh & Blood, signing horror legend David Cronenberg to play Galloway family patriarch, Spencer.<\/p>\n

Best known for his directing work on Rabid, Scanners, The Dead Zone and The Fly, the filmmaker has also taken on acting roles in the likes of Alias Grace<\/a> and Star Trek: Discovery<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Several cast members from previous seasons of Slasher are returning for Flesh & Blood in brand new roles, in a similar vein to how Ryan Murphy has stayed loyal to his American Horror Story<\/a> talent pool.<\/p>\n

Longtime viewers will recognise Christopher Jacot and Sabrina Grdevich, who are back for another round of gory scares in the roles of siblings Seamus and Florence Galloway.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Slasher stalwart Paula Brancati will play Seamus\u2019 wife Christy, with Patrice Goodman as housekeeper Birgit Vogel and Jefferson Brown in an undisclosed role.<\/p>\n

Rounding out the rest of the cast (and the dysfunctional Galloway clan) are franchise newcomers Rachael Crawford (The Expanse<\/a>), Alex Ozerov (The Americans), Nataliya Rodina (Spinning Out<\/a>), Sydney Meyer (V Wars<\/a>), and Jeananne Goosen (Coroner<\/a>).<\/p>\n
