Cult Classic: you'll love or hate
This is a movie people will either love or hate. I have an infinity for 80's and some 90's horror. I think they are the building blocks of what people consider horror today.
Which there hasn't been in good horror flicks in a long time, if you don't count Insidious or The Conjuring. Even then those did not make the hair on my body raise.
But Killer Party did back when I was a kid. Not so much the atmosphere did but it was the character of Jennifer that did. What she did was give me nightmares at eight years old.
The three friends are easily the best characters and actors in the movie if you don't count Martin, who is the comic relief.
If anything watch for Jennifer and Martin.
It's a story you've probably heard somewhere else but what makes it different is how the story is set up. I just wish that there had been more background info on the evil itself.
I liked how the movie ended but there is no second party because the movie flopped. So there's no resolution. It's an open ended ending.
I did find out that there was suppose to more gore and scenes but had to re-edited and filmed due to the MPAA rating.
Give it a try if you like campy fun with a little hair raising.
