redefines the genre for a new generation

Rating: 9/10 (2 July 1999)

after so many pathetic, b-quality movies free-flowing onto horror movie shelves, its about time we get a masterwork such as this. its clever, humorous, scary, and makes you think. even the acting is top notch, especially for a low budget film. i haven't been so satisfied with a horror movie in years. thanks to Wes Craven for bringing us one of his best films ever. and kudos to Williamson also for writing such a work. i give it a 9.
