Absolutely terrible

Rating: 4/10 (3 June 2005)

I took careful consideration before I rated this movie. To acting, effects, and scariness, the former two of which I gave 7, and the latter of which I gave 6, I had little objection, if any at all. But when it came to music, I think I was fair when I said 5--I would have said lower, but it came from the seventies. And I rated the plot lowest of all--3.5--a sleepy little town on Halloween night suddenly suffers little more than an itch when, at the most, ten of its members fall victim to murder, murder attempt, or its effects. The most one can make of it is, "A bunch of girls are planning on having a good time on Halloween night. A doctor comes in to keep a murderer from running loose. The girls, unaware, continue with their plans and three people are murdered, and the last of them gets chased around by the guy, twice finding an ingenious little way to 'kill' him before he gets up again. Finally when she's between a rock and a hard place the doctor comes in and shoots the guy, whose face we see only once, and never even hear a word from. The murderer comes to life again and we are left without even an explanation why he can survive all the death attempts on himself." I saw it on TV, so maybe it was shortened, but no amount of time added could probably make me enjoy this dreadfully bad movie.
