A character is killed with kitchen cutlery in a scene ripped from CARRIE, while a girl speaks in a demonic voice, just like in THE EXORCIST. The acting is substandard (what do you expect from an '80s slasher?) and the music is ripped straight off HALLOWEEN, with the familiar tinkling tune and point of view killer shots. The murders are all staged with relish, and most of them are absurd enough to be funny. In the opening scenes, the HALLOWEEN influence is clear, with a young boy murdering his mother's lover. However, one of these slashers took events in a slightly different direction it still had the same gruesome murders, but this time the killer was trapped inside a mirror. Some of these, like Friday THE 13TH, even spawned their own imitations.
