Viewing Notes
Movie 2 of Friday the 13th Baby Horror Night.
An extension of the short found in THREE… EXTREMES, this film expands the characters of the original short. Bai Ling is tolerable in her native tongue. The beautiful cinematography by Christopher Doyle and the stunning score are both expanded. Lower impact, but deeper in meaning. Love both the short and long versions.
