The first 10 minutes of this trash fest were hilariously bad. From boo moments that had me laughing out loud to a lingering shower scene that has a fetish for the female buttocks, I was entertained with the pure camp of it all. Then it starts to go into copy HALLOWEEN mode and loses its campiness and replaces it with pure boredom.
Trish Devereaux (Michelle Michaels, DEATH WISH 4: THE CRACKDOWN), besides getting naked, likes to throw slumber parties, where her pretty female friends wear the skimpiest clothing possible. Trish wants to invite the new girl from next-door Val (Robin Stille, AMERICAN NINJA 4: THE ANNIHILATION), but the other girls don’t like her because she makes them look bad at basketball.
The killer Russ Thorn (Michael Villella, WILD ORCHID) is a bug-eyed workman. He’s boring and not scary at all. The plot rips off HALLOWEEN so many times that I wished I were watching that movie. At some point I wished Russ Thorn killed me so that I wouldn’t have to watch any more of this turkey. A few cheap laughs in the beginning do not make up for terrible acting, continuity errors galore, insensitive humor, gratuitous T&A, terrible dialogue and contrived plotting that drags and drags and drags. This film never scares once, but it sure made me want to slumber. I was looking for a bad movie and I found one. Maybe I should value my time more and stop looking.
