opening kill is kinda good
17 September 2017
Bride-to-be Marie hates horror movies but is watching one with her friend. Someone stabs her to death in the back. Police detective Len Gamble is called in. He figures that it's the same man who killed his bride-to-be years earlier. Meanwhile, Amy Jensen (Caitlin O'Heaney) is planning her marriage to Phil. Her ex Marvin won't let her go. Nancy and Joyce are her best friends. Someone starts killing the people around her.

It's a new age for horror but not every one can be Halloween. In fact, most are much less than the best ones that everybody remember. This is one of those. It's also much more inferior by the comparison. The opening movie theater kill is superb and lovely. However, the movie takes a long slide downwards but then Tom Hanks shows up. This is early Tom Hanks in his film debut. Leaving that aside, this movie is a basic serial killer flick without anything special. The killer has no distinguishing qualities. The lead is actually a fine actress but the acting overall is unmemorable. There is nothing here other than Hanks and the opening kill.
