| User ReviewKyle fAbove average horror flick featuring a great cast and some cleverly set up scare scenes. |
| User ReviewJeff BPromising film that unfortunately suffers from bad 80s cliches and lacks 80s horror/slasher movie cliches (if that makes sense). A woman gets murdered by a buy with a black ski mask (and in the midst of the quarrel, there is one of the greatest lines ever: "You wanna rape me? It's okay, I'll make you feel real good"). Her death results in the sister coming to town to find out what happened. Of course, the sister, as well as the rest of the community, seems completely unphased by the death. The dialogue tries to be too quirky, the deaths are nothing special and the finale is just... odd. And there's a hilarious montage in the film with an extreme 80s ballad that seems to play on loop several times, it's just an endless montage. I'm really not sure what I watched, but it's certainly a very "different" 80s horror film. |
| User ReviewSenor CDeadly Games was always a movie that I figured was a hidden gem in the 80s slasher crazy. Hell it had Dick Butkus in it. Sadly you don't get to see him get killed. You do get to see him play a little football though. Deadly Games is a great disappointment because it's so incredibly boring & has a terrible ending. That seems to be a trend in horror movies Ive been watching lately. There's just a lot of needless filler here. There's a extended seen where a few of the main character watch a movie in an empty movie house & we watch along w/ them. @ least they were drinking beer..maybe I should have been drinking beer...& then it's followed up w/ a music montage where the song is just awful. I just felt I could have felt better use of my time then watching this flix..like sleeping |
