Sevmedim, sevemedim. Zaten yönetmenin kadınlar hakkında nasıl iğrenç saygısız konuştuğunu gördüğümde böyle bir filmin çıkmasına şaşırmadım. Absürt ve ilgi çekici yerleri var ama onun dışında tamami ile rezillik

HILARIOUS! Im so glad I got the chance to catch this at the Varsity theaters. Really made me want to smoke pot on a water bed, and take classes under the guidance of the kung fu professor.

A really amazing slasher, the music and the atmosphere are so eerie and so 80s I love it. The killer is cool and spooky and the kills are so good especially for the time. Also might be one of my favorite mystery slashers.
