Viewing Notes

Another good Horror Movie Night selection. When I say “good” I’m not talking abut the movie, but more so the atmosphere it creates with a bunch of us talking shit and drinking. The movie is a muddy mess with too long shots of the lead lady either on the floor of the kitchen eating out of the fridge or on the phone talking to god knows who. However, there’s a few okay kills, including one decent “body cut in half” and a decapitation.

For an 80s slasher it’s not half bad but also nothing to write home about. Still, it’s entertaining on some levels.
