A group of film students plan an all-night horror film festival in order to raise funds for their cinema club. They decide to show a number of horror films from the 1950s that rely on gimmicks such as 3-D, Odorama, and electrical "buzzers" in seats. Unbeknownst to the group, a homicidal maniac is stalking the theater where the festival is being held...a filmmaker named Lanyard Gates, who murdered his family during a screening of his only film in the 1970s. One of Lanyard's daughters escaped his brutal massacre and the lead character Maggie thinks she may be that very girl and the reason for his homicidal return.
Mike's Thoughts:
I can vividly remember watching this film as a teen. I loved it then as much as I love it now. It's filled with camp, awesome props, an imaginative storyline and a handful of those "I know I've seen them in something before" actors. There's a lot of blood for those who thirst for red and a few nifty skin-mask scenes. A must see for fans of the genre!
Look For:
Awesome costumes, the creepy "Possessor" film and great movie theater gag-gimmick kills.
