Edge of the Axe (1988) - great Spanish slasher with one of my favorite killer reveals.
The Ghost Dance (1980) - underrated blend of Native American mysticism and slasher horror.
Mirage (1990) - very hard to find, but more than worth the effort.
Shallow Grave (1987) - intense and overlooked gem. VHS released by Paramount.
House of Death (1982) - atmospheric slasher with a likable cast.
Innocent Prey (1984) - fun slasher from the director of Long Weekend.
Fatal Games (1984) - an absolute blast, my favorite sports-related slasher.
The Slayer (1982) - eerie little island slasher.
To All a Goodnight (1980) - the best of the "killer Santa" flicks.
Bloodbeat (1983) - surreal samurai slasher.
The Mutilator (1985) - classic splatter.
Fatal Pulse (1988) - liked this one a lot more than I expected to.
Curtains (1983) - classy Canadian gem.
Aerobicide (1987) - one of the best cheese-fests in the genre.
Deadly Lessons (1983) - quality TV whodunit with quite the cast.
Out of the Dark (1988) - stylish De Palma-esque slasher.
Deadly Games (1982) - a real oddity, but interesting. Would love to hear what the director has to say about it.
Blood Hook (1986) - surprisingly enjoyable comedy slasher.
Satan's Blade (1984) - rather bad, but lots of fun and has a great ending.
Amsterdamned (1988) - Dutch slasher with a better than typical budget.
Demon Warrior (1988) - not as good as The Ghost Dance, but an intriguing Native American slasher all the same.
It'd be cool to see Synapse rescue some of these from obscurity like they did with The Dorm that Dripped Blood.

I'm surprised you didn't list Iced (1988)
How about Deadly Intruder (1985)? It's not great but entertaining enough. I like the friends-invited-to-dinner-at-remote-house setting, and the VHS art used to creep me out back in rental days.
