  • It's 80s SLASHER review time, and I'll bet most of you haven't seen this one. HELL HIGH. A film that was almost lost in time, but thanks to Arrow, it finally saw the light of day. Most unique slasher ever? #HellHigh

    I really enjoy these old early 80's/late 70's deep cut reviews of yours, Lee. That is my favorite era as well! And I also love to learn the behind the scenes trivia. Been catching up and listening to your reviews all day! Longtime fan, but don't usually comment a lot. But thanks for all you do. We are usually on the same page with horror movies, so I appreciate you and wish you much success.

    Great review LEE. This Blu-ray is awesome I'm glad they gave it the Royal Treatment because the DVD was in full frame and the picture quality is nowhere near this.

    Chris Cousins was the voice of Cobra Commander on GI Joe: A Real American Hero & my favorite Decepticon, Starscream, on Transformers: Generation 1. Although, I'm probably thinking of the late Chris Latta who sometimes is billed as Chris Cousins.

    Hey, I watched S&TC too. Granted, I am part of the target audience for it, but still watched it, so yeah, I got the Mr. Bigg reference, Carrie's on again off again bf. As for this movie, it is indeed streaming somewhere, right here on UA-cam in fact. Found it while back, stumbling upon a channel with a bunch of older movies, sounded interesting, so put it in my movies playlist. Haven't watched it yet, but it is there. Sounds like I should check it out. Also, talking about 1980s slashers that seem to be forgotten, have you seen Night School from 1981 starring Rachel Wood? I did like that movie, even bought it cheap on UA-cam, but no one seems to talk about it. Anyways, thank you, Lee.

    I never knew this existed. I watch it last night, and I thought it was good, but dragged in the middle abit. Almost like they didn't know what to do to fill the time.
    Christopher Cousins is a brilliant actor, and they all held their own. It was a clever film.
    You should review: Silent Scream with Yvonne DeCarlo & Mutilator 80's slasher two of my favorites. They both are on Tubi.

    Man, I did not expect a reference to Casualties of War.
    One of those movies that made a deep impact on me when I watched it.
    Sean Penn's performance and what they put that woman through.
    Could never bring myself to watch more than that one time.
    In regard to this movie that I am thinking about picking up.
    Is this a mix of a slasher and r***/revenge movie?
