Okay 80's slasher
10 March 2013
Warning: Spoilers
Since John Carpenter 's Halloween was such a huge success , that inspired many filmmakers to follow suite with something similar . The 80's churned out thousands of low budget slasher films of varied quality . In my opinion most of these films suck and for every brilliant slasher film ala Halloween , there are a hundred that are garbage . The Dorm That Dripped Blood is somewhere in the middle , it does stick to the formula early in the film . However, I applaud the film for the plot twist and dark ending . It also has a few real well done gore scenes that were in some places censored , thus earning video nasty status in England. The score is good as well. For a slasher flick I found this to be alright . However, for the most part slashers aren't my bag. Crazy dude with machete chasing teenagers that can't act gets old for me real fast. If slashers are your thing, this film may appeal to you, as many worse movies of this type exist.
