Viewing Notes

Second to last movie at Box of Horrors. One I haven’t seen for about 5 years so it was great to see again on the big screen this time in 35mm. Features one of the best onscreen kills of all time. A little surprised they didn’t save this entry for a future Lieberman appearance since he’s done the event in the past for Squirm and Satan’s Little Helper.
