PICK ME UP

Two serial killers (Michael Moriarty, Warren Kole) are in a sort of competition to kill off the many people stuck on a broken down bus (Laurene Landon, Malcolm Kennard, Tom Pickett and more). However, it gets a little harder when they try and kill tough girl Stacia (Fairuza Balk)

Well, I was hearing a lot of bad reviews about this, so I wasn't sure how smart it was of me to pick this to be my first "Masters of Horror" episode. Luckily, I wasn't let down.

While there's one real good jump scene, the movie is actually more funny than it is scary, but that's the case of all Larry Cohen films.

So don't come into it thinking "creepy, scary". Come into it thinking "fun, cheesy" and than you'll have a smashing time.
