What Reelgood users are saying

"Fun slasher film with standout practical effects by Tom Savini. The plot involves a killer targeting a town after a dance is revived decades later. While the pacing is odd and the ending shocking, the impressive kills make it worth watching for gore enthusiasts."

A subpar early 80s slasher with some wonderful practical effects done by the legendary Tom Savini, definitely worth a watch, though the pacing is rather odd and the ending will have you shocked! The kills 100% make up for this however, fellow gorehounds!

Fun slasher film. My favorite part was the practical effects of the head/shotgun meeting.A couple is murdered after a dance in the recent past. The dance begins again decades later, and the killer is at it again. Multiples are killed in town with a pitch fork and a machete until a lady and an old man get the best of the new killer, who turn out to be the current sheriff. No explanation why.
