Overview

It’s Part V! Unstoppable killer Jakkariah “Jack” Harding is back in town after seven years as he stalks and kills at random before chancing upon a football watch party. The game is, of course, between longstanding rivals the Alabama-Mobile Seahawks and the Tennessee A&M Commonwealth. Chaos ensues, in increasingly ridiculous fashion, with inventive murders and multiple love triangles! Hearts are broken and appendages are torn.

Length 89 minutes

Viewing Notes

This homage to 1990s sequels of ‘80s era slasher franchises is great! Smart writing, some great acting (Kansas Bowling as the precocious Maggie is especially outstanding) and memorable carnage all wrapped around a regional football rivalry make for a lot of fun.

Even though this is “Part V” the correct viewing order is to watch this one first, for reasons that become clearer when watching.

I also loved the attention to detail in the in-movie commercials, newscasts, etc. It also features a bit of CLASS OF NUKE ‘EM HIGH for good measure.
