It's great, IF you really love that old, low-budget, late-80s horror. It's a love-letter to classic slasher films, just like Kill Bill was a tribute to Hong Kong martial arts films and Japanese chanbara. If you don't like the source material, you're probably not going to like them.

Good point. It was quite a while ago and didn't really approach it from that angle. With all the sequels, I should try the first again.

It's complete schlock. But it's fun schlock.

I do like that. Also my original comment was based on "all hallows eve" which someone pointed out. My fault. I'm gonna give both another try though.
