not sure i’d recommend this one UNLESS you’re really into slashers. this is like if you took a typical 80s slasher but then added a bunch of horniness and then took all of the budget away aside from like 200 bucks.
it actually took a minute to get used to the audio and visual quality. initially quite jarring.
definitely one of those horror movies middle schoolers back in the day would watch at the sleepover when they wanted to feel naughty.

a lot of great artistic value, ahead of its time with the low budget. it’s the show, YOU before the show. with how it unveils sadism in a simple way to create an environment filled with vulnerability and jealous natures. alongside it there’s a creation of disturbing phone calls from an unknown entity, could it be supernatural, a stalker or her schizophrenia?
i like how it deals with reality in an unserious way but at the same time subtly perfectly mirrors it. it’s more of a thriller than horror and with that being said there wasn’t much mystery to be solved or revealed. it tries to be hitchcock (especially with how much he’s mentioned or hinted at) with the violent revealings but it leads to almost no suspense. and when the shock happens and ends, the film still continues for 10-15 more mins and doesn’t know what else to do.

Hooptober XI - #10/31
Sensational music to start with some and some really great sounds throughout. The biggest kill was that guitar solo towards the hour mark.This was very cozy with lots of texture. Electric kills with that score on top brought a thrilling experience. The psychological horror mixed in with that slasher horror is great!
