Bring on the trash. The glorious trash. It’s so bad, it’s just bad.

Beth is a college student with repressed memories about when she was 5 years-old and her brother murdered her family. She has nightmares about some guy stalking her and it turns out the sorority house she lives in was her childhood home. The brother is in a mental asylum, but due to inept guards and awful security, he easily escapes.

First off, it takes almost 50 minutes for anything to start happening. Sure, there are a few boob shots when the sorority sisters are trying on clothes (tee-hee!), but that’s about it. The setup is really boring.

When the killing begins, the characters are freaked out, but the bad guy isn’t even that scary. He’s slow, clumsy, and they easily could have dodged his stabbies.

More than anything, the plot is a direct rip-off of Halloween, where the kid kills his family, breaks out of a mental hospital years later, and goes on a rampage after his last remaining family member. The difference is that John Carpenter is actually a good director who can tell a frightening story by making good use of visuals and music.

The only saving grace here is that the movie is 76 minutes, so 50 minutes of boring crap and then 20 minutes of half-assed killing. The best part was when the killer is hanging onto the windowsill and the girls keep bamming his fingers. Bam bam. Take that, you turkey!
