Viewing Notes

Wrapping up my mini-Rollin binge w/this film, the last of the expiring titles I haven’t seen. Enjoy the departure from the vampires to a sci-fi phenomena in an urban setting. Seems to be influenced by the 70s giallo period and Argento in particular w/the kills, kill shots, and score. Not a bad thing. Sadly the film loses its way in the third act for a deflated finale after a nice build-up. Still worth a look.
