A Classic.

Rating: Null/10 (22 September 2004)

The problem with horror movies is that they are always followed by horrible sequels. In most cases, the original movie starts out with such a great concept and story that the movie itself can be appreciated for more than just a horror flick. But once the villain gains fame in the real world, the series becomes a money-making machine for the company who owns the movie. The original writers and directors are usually not involved with the rest of the series, and as a result, the original concept of the movie has little or nothing to do with what happens throughout the rest of the series.
And thus, in every movie a hero emerges and finds a way to "kill" the villain. This cycle continues and each movie offers a brand new explanation for why the villain has come back to life, and what they must do to end his reign of terror.
Finally, after countless sequels, the series comes to an end. And we as fans are left to enjoy the movie for what is was...not what is has become.
