Terrible.
Epic
Fantastic film! Keeps the viewer entertained throughout its entire duration!
Cult classic, not a horror but some terrifying scenes and the last few minutes are worth the entire film. GREAT performances all around and I’m sure this was an experience to make.
A slow burn, but good payoff. A well put together story, albeit at the extreme end of feasible. This isn’t so much horror, but more of a psychological thriller/suspense/revenge movie. Strong performances by the three male leads, King, Van Patten, and McDowell. Van Patten was especially good as an unlikeable psychopath. Excellent soundtrack also. I had a good feeling when the movie opened wirh Alice Cooper.
