    I'd read a lot of harsh reviews of this one before I sat down to watch it, but of all the criticisms, the only one that I felt really applied was the lack of gore. Apart from that, I liked a lot of things about this one. The thick layers of mid eighties cheese for one thing, as w...( read more)ell as the utterly generic plot gave me a warm, comforting been there, done that but just keep coming back for more feeling. I found the dream sequences kinda fun and intriguing, even though they had a lot of unused potential. The acting was pear for this sort of movie, ie. not great, but fortunately not grating. Plus there was a little bit of mindless nudity, which did make me briefly grin. What elevated this film above being wholly ordinary for me though were the frequent moments of suspense, and cool, if never very bloody killings. The lack of much blood annoyed me, as gore was clearly a necessary part of the film that just seemed to have been left out, but even without it, the killer set about his business with an almost Michael Myers verve and dedication, which meant for some good excitement, especially towards the end. That about sums it up, as far as I can remember. Definitely recommended, mostly to eighties slasher fans who don't mind there being not very much gore.

    Similar to Halloween, this is a great slasher film which was direct-to-video in the 80's. It has an awesome dream sequence which freaked us out as kids. Once the killer arrives on the scene, it's a great set of killings and end chase. A quality film. Ignore that beautiful woman b...( read more)ehind the blinds!

    A very bad slasher film. Follows the usual plot of knife weilding maniac chasing half naked girls around a big house. Looks like a much older film than it is. The fashion is just so bad as well!!!

    It's not much of a horror movie as you can imagine but it's a cheesy bit of fun in places.

    Extremely slick and well made slasher movie but it's really no different than any of the others in terms of content and point of view. For slasher completists only.

    The only thing that was really massacred here was a lot of celluloid that could have been used for good MOVIE.

    When Beth goes to a sorority house for a fun weekend she has nightmares about a killer trying to kill her but when her dreams become a real it's up to her and the sorority sisters to fight for their lives.
