I LOVED this movie. First off, Jennifer Runyon. Such a babe. But movie wise, it seemed to play as the most glorious satire of 80s slashers all the while playing it straight. I know its meant to be a full on horror, and good on em for trying, but I think what they accomplished is even better. There are decisions made, especially in the last 30 minutes, that are just hilarious comments on the genre. The super nerdy, shy guy gets laid and the next morning is all of a sudden a decision making hornball tough guy. Oh and after a night where everyone hooks up, they all switch partners and by the next night are "in love" with another character. Oh and the killer stuff...don't want to spoil it. But anyway, I legit love this movie, it's hysterical and I'm laughing WITH it not AT it. I think if this got the Scream Factory treatment and cooler cover art to replace that godawful design that's on it, and boom this would be a new classic. I'm not saying it's completely unknown...I just think it should be higher up there when it comes to 80s horror.
Update dec 2019: every year I watch this and every year I like it less than the year before. It’s not as watchable bad as I remember it being that very first time. Probs gonna bump it from 8 to a 7.

It's objectively bad in every way but it's also funny and I had a good time so I can't in my heart of hearts rate it any lower
