Great horror movie and a great satire

Rating: 9/10 (29 April 2011)

This movie is one of my favorite by Wes Craven if only because of his ability to know every cliché' he uses in his own movies. It is amazing that this movie can be so scary, a suspenseful who-done-it, and a hilarious spoof all in one. The body of this movie is about an 8 and the great beginning and ending pull it up to a nine in my book. I definitely recommend this movie to anyone looking for a good slasher, however, I feel like people should see some other classic horror movies (eg. Nightmare on Elm street, Halloween, Friday the Thirteenth, etc.) to enjoy this to the fullest because the little things in this movie create hilarity sometimes. See this movie when you have a genuine knowledge of horror movies but it is also still great if you don't.
