Let me be the first to comment....DOH!

Rating: 10/10 (6 January 1999)

Well, even though I'm the 5 billionth person to comment, I couldn't resist saying SOMETHING about one of the best horror films ever. If it spawned such classic sequels, something must have worked. And it did. The movie was crude, yes, due mostly to budget restraints and studio hounding. But Sam still carried out most of his vision, and the movie was great. Yes, the sequels are better, in my opinion, but I still love the first, it's always great to watch to see how great things are born.
