Review by James the King for Slumber Party Massacre [DVD] [1982]

If the title hasn’t already sold you, I doubt I’ll be able to convince you that this film is worth a look.
The plot is a slightly tweaked and thinly veiled rip off of ‘Halloween’, but this movie doesn’t take itself anywhere near as seriously as John Carpenter’s classic shocker, and this is perhaps its saving grace.
Like all good horror movies of the period, ‘The Slumber Party Massacre’ aims to provide us with two things; mild titillation though its utterly shameless use of female nudity and cheap thrills though its corny murder moments. While the latter is hardly on a par with many slashers, it is a bit of fun. Some of the murders are quite inventive, if a little sparing on the gore.
As far as the nudity goes, the premise dictates a fairly abundant use of boobs and thighs. While some may consider this sexist, it is important to note that the director is actually a woman. Stick that in your feminist pipe and choke on it!
Happilly, not only is the film graced with some deliciously and flagrantly gratuitous breast exposure, but the owners of said breasts are uniformly gorgeous. Movies like ‘The Mutilator’ (which contained not just ugly but fully-clothed ugly women) could learn a lot from this masterpiece of schlock!
This is not to everyone’s taste but, if you’ve read this far with a smile on your face, I’m pretty sure it’s the film for you.

Take this for what it is. It’s cheesy, questionable acting, rips off Halloween something chronic! But, it’s bloody, quite funny, rather nasty, quite short, makes you jump, fast paced, and really good.
It would be great for a teen party, or for someone of my age to remember renting it in the 80’s when my parents were out, and not sleeping for two weeks!
So, it’s good value, scary entertainment. Enjoy!

This is pretty good for a very old slasher film. It does look a bit dated now and would probably only get a 15 by todays standards. This has the usual story of a bunch of teens having a sleep over when a madman serial killer escapes and decides to kill them for the fun of it. No real plot or story line just the usual blood, murder and nude girls in the shower. It does kind of act as a prequel to the more upto date Cheerleader massacre also worth a look. No extras on the disc as the movie is old. If your a horror or slasher fan you can do worse than this, as many of todays offerings are rubbish.

Yes, this film is quite bad. but, if you absolutely LOVE cheesey 80’s American horror, like me, you’ll fall in love with this movie pretty quickly! Definately get it!
