The Columbia Guide to Standard American English

slay (v.) 
   
The past tense is slew, except that slayed occurs in the slang sense of "to delight or overwhelm," a jocular (愛開玩笑的) and hyperbolic figurative use: 

His [comic] routines just slayed me! 

The Standard past participle is slain, also widely used as a participial adjective, which together with slayer has become a headline writer’s cliché. See EXECUTE. 


　Along for the ride are [a slew of] new cohorts, including Shia LaBeouf, Ray Winstone and John Hurt, with a few new delicious baddies (Cate Blanchett, Igor Jijikine) to add to his roster of villains.
