Is it good & scary?

"It's a good thing!"--Martha Stewart



This is probably one of the silliest and most laughable slasher films made in the early 1980's. In fact, it's so ridiculous that it comes across like an unintentional parody of slice'n'dice fare. So, scary it sure ain't, but it's a whole lot of infectiously trashy fun just the same.

I think it has such a creepy setting in a hospital and the characters are strange. Barbi is so gorgeous and the examination scene of her tits is not to be missed.

I found it pretty creepy. The almost dreamlike logic and over the top nature of it all made for a fun but creepy ride. The location and killer are both awesome.

Good is pretty subjective, but I’d rate it ahead of many slashers of the era because it doesn’t revolve around stupid teenagers. As far as being scary, it does generate a bit of suspense, and there is one excellent jump scare.
