This is a beautiful film where the main character is the killer, we get to see his thoughts, his motives, and his deepest fears all come to life. This film is very violent, and very creepy, especially for 1980. This could be one of the most violent classic slashers out there, and it is a slasher. Frank Zito is a maniac, and he targets women, but the best thing about the movie is, it is revealed why he targets women, why he is haunted into doing so.

Add in some awesome makeup effects by the legend Tom Savini, and a cheesy soundtrack and you have one awesome Slasher film on your hands.

If you love Slashers, see this, and then shower, and then see it again, because it will make you feel a tad..dirty.
