Leave your thoughts about April Fool's Day.
| eFilmCritic.comScott WeinbergThere are much better 80's horror flicks to spend your money on, but April Fool's Day has enough jolts and twists to warrant a look. |
| TheFilmFile.comDustin PutmanEven today, it holds up as a spooky, flirty entertainment, doing justice to the folly and mirth of its namesake holiday. |
| Antagony & EcstasyTim BraytonOne of the savviest examples of slasher film self-commentary in existence, beating Scream by a cool ten years and a half. |
| The Globe and Mail (Toronto)Salem AlatonThe dialogue is mostly composed of rude variations on ''eek,'' ''ugh'' and ''I'd like to sleep with you this evening.'' |
| SlasherpoolAndreas SamuelsonCompared to other similar 80s teen-flicks, this is a very fun and likable little film. |
| Washington PostPaul AttanasioA cut above the usual hack 'em up, and perhaps even a hack above the usual cut 'em up. |
| User ReviewMary Weven better than i remembered it being as a kid. the transfer is really pretty looking on dvd now so get it! |
| User ReviewGil SOne of my favorite horror movies? Yes. Amazing film? Yes. Underrated? Yes. This movie is the shit! |
| User ReviewBetty TWatching this movie today I might not like it as much, but I fell in love with it when it first came out!! In it's day this was great!!!! |
| User ReviewCassandra MA totally entertaining 80's slasher flick that's surprisingly well cast and acted, and the make-or-break ending really works. It's "And Then There Were None" meets "Friday the 13th." (Deborah Foreman and Amy Steel rock!) |
