Is it worth seeing?

I read about this film at terrortrap.com in their review section, and say it's not a comedy at all (as it was marketed) and is better than the reviews say. I'm thinking of ordering the DVD but I wanted to know some other opinions before I do. What does everyone (who have seen it) think about this film?

No not so much comedy but a great example of '80's slasher done right, the gimmick of this movie, the trap doors is really fun...

"a great example of '80's slasher done right"

Then why remake it?

If your a fan of the cheesy ones or just want to have some campy fun with added slashing. Yeah, I recommend it. It's not the the best, but, it's a good watch.

It's a real fun and simple downhome slasher opus with loads of spooky atmosphere and a certain amiably roughhewn low-budget charm to it.

Wow, this thread's stayed here a long time! I have seen the film, actually ordered the DVD years ago now; I've only watched it all the way through once, but thought it was a quirky flick. I may have to re-watch it again here soon, there's quite a bit about it that I don't remember.
