Review of The Slumber Party Massacre (1982) by Ran L — 21 Jul 2011
Slumber Party Massacre is one seriously underrated film. Not only is it a gore-filled slasher filled with T&A, it has feminist undertones. The boys are helplessly picked off while the girls gather up their courage and fight back.
Slumber Party Massacre may not be for everyone; it is pretty bloody having been produced by Roger Corman. There are some scary scenes, but it's mostly satire. However, the studio wanted to play it seriously, so we end up getting satirical dialogue played straight.
The acting is good for the most part, especially Michael Villella's creepy performance as Russ Thorn. Most of the Slumber Party Massacre series' trailers display the overall vibe of the film, and this one's is no exception.
Check it out before you watch to decide if it's for you or not.
