Movie review

This one has a lot of Prom night movie vibes almost same opening different though but sort of more creepy way to open the movie in fact this movie was release in same year of 1980 of prom night but this was release before Prom night so that is something.

So did I think this movie was good at first I am going to say it was very strange can of slow after death scene at the start it got creepy the whole movie had a someone dress as Santa going around killing people which is a good idea for a bloody Horror movie but editing in this was not best though seem like it rush though poor editing on film or camera angles also teens seem what to have sex with anybody in this now I am used to see that in Horror movies a lot this one every moment they seem like they want to do it a lot now that a little bit too much my view and as movie goes on it does get more creepy though.

Policeman grabs young lady face which is very creepy and says everything will be ok after that he got Horny as well I was laughing at it because it was bad for that stuff cops are Here to help you not get Horny much in Slasher movies at least I don’t think.

Now as for the ended again it was poor on editing after a good twist the killer and young girl was up on top of steps and killer ended up on floor but between that they give us a flashback so how the heck did killer end of the floor well did not show poor editing there that for sure the ending of movie was poor was as well not much fighting at ended at it end with woman dancing as it fade it all red that dumb way to end it could of had killer go after them or something also before I ended this the young lady who played Nancy was young Jennifer Runyon who was in Ghostbusters years later this was first movie she was in I think anyway she was not bad but not best either as for other acting it was laughable and silly will say kills they got right but plot, Edting and some acting was poor that what made this movie from not being good is all I got to say to writers and directors of movie go back to drawing board and next movie you make try and make it better is all I got to say.

I give this movie out of 10/10 a 4/10 because it was poor
