Recently they've been releasing a lot of these forgotten horror flux on ritzy new blu ray mega discs. Lucky for me because as a kid I used to live at Palmer video, Metro video and West Coadt video amongst others. I fell in live wi th h the wild artwork on the covers but rarely took them home. Since I was only allowed a rental or two I stuck to my favorites. So I'm definitely happy they are rereleasing them. But what I'm discovering is that a lot of them are just trash, the right kind of trash if you're lucky. This entry I felt indifferent about the mask is creepy and some of the kills are effective but its mostly generic. It's pretty basic as an axe wielding maniac terrorizes a small town while two computer nerds try and solve the crimes before they become the next victims. The movie is clunky and mostly unengaging. But it's well enough to pass a rainy afternoon especially if you're desperate like I am for hidden retro gems.
