My rating: 7.5/10
Will I watch it again? Yes.
Where the hell has this been and why hadn't I heard of this before? Don't worry about the plot sounding like a dozen other movies you've seen before. There's nothing new here BUT it is a lot of fun. MAJOR SPOILERS AHEAD...YARRRRR!!!!! The more I watched it the more I got into it. It's a well-shot flick. The acting is good, the direction and building of suspense is nice, the pacing, setting, etc.. Then people started dying and in really neat ways. The gore is very good and there is a lot of it. Hell, everyone (except for one person I think) dies. You read that right. That's a lot of people and just when you think so and so is going to make it? Nope. Snuffed out. It's beautiful While the basic storyline is cliched, the film strays from the cliche and kills everybody and they die where in other pictures they would live. I'm really impressed with this Canadian slasher. I really hope that this picture made money because everyone came together and made a fine flick. It's not often that I come across an 80s horror flick I've missed that I really enjoy.
