Parramatta scored the opening try of the afternoon but then it was all Storm, which exploded after half-time to register a stunning 64-4 win at AAMI Park.
Storm scored eight second half tries to send an ominous warning to its premiership rivals as it prepares to meet bitter rivals Manly next Saturday night.
Coach Craig Bellamy would have been disappointed with his side's start.
They lead 16-4 at half-time but at times looked like they were just going through the motions.
Parramatta caught Storm's defence napping to go over after just four minutes through winger Semi Radradra.
It was an unexpected opening and it appeared to jolt Melbourne to life.
Back-rower Ryan Hoffman was soon over followed soon by Slater, who was on end on some good work from Cooper Cronk.
The home side struggled to find its rhythm early on, but a second try to Hoffman right on half-time gave it some breathing space.
Bellamy tore into his side at the break and it had the desired impact.
Centre Will Chambers found an opening to score not long after the resumption.
Then it was Slater's turn, which was followed up by Kenny Bromwich.
Bromwich ran hard to support a break by skipper Cameron Smith and was rewarded with his first NRL try.
Slater wasn't done with it either.
The Storm fan favourite registered his hat-trick when he found a gap and exploded through it to bring up his hat-trick.
Tim Glasby – a late inclusion for Tohu Harris – then crashed over for his maiden first grade try.
Not to be outdone by his brother, prop Jesse Bromwich got his name on the scoresheet to bring up the half-century.
Chambers added the finishing touches when he went over his second try in the dying stages.
Centre Maurice Blair scored the final of the match when he pushed aside some shocking Eels defence to make it a 60-point win.
