Review of Home for the Holidays (1974) by John M — 13 Nov 2008
Solid and entertaining ABC Movie of the Week with great turns by a stellar ensemble cast. Sally Field has never been more adorable and manages to be quite a capable scream queen in her extended stalking/chase sequences towards the finale.
The pace is pretty quick and the festive atmosphere normally associated with the holidays is not to be found anywhere in sight. Instead of Christmas lights and joyous carols, we get family bickering, shrieks of terror, rain, and thunder.
Home for the Holidays is a fun little slasher/whodunit with just enough thrills and chills to satisfy horror fans. A must see!!!
