Still Deadly Boring
I remember being dragged to see this clinker in '81, and being horrified at how sterile, boring and lifeless it was, one of the first truly "soulless" films of what turned out to be the "soulless" decade (the 80s). Just watched it again on streaming video and amazingly, it still holds that soul-dead quality it had back then. Wes Craven and John Carpenter are two overrated hacks who had the uncanny ability to take even an interesting premise and turn it into dreary, boring coroprate junk.
