Leave your thoughts about Happy Birthday to Me.
| Lessons of DarknessNick SchagerA camp-tastic footnote to the late-'70s, early-'80s slasher flick craze. |
| Dread CentralSteve "Uncle Creepy" BartonIf horror fans are going to shell out their hard-earned money for a movie, there needs to be more than just a prettier picture on the DVD case. |
| Combustible CelluloidJeffrey M. AndersonIt's not particularly gory, scary or suspenseful, but it actually contains some good twists and a generally higher level of character and performance. |
| Antagony & EcstasyTim BraytonA great deal more complex than it has any right or reason to be. |
| Washington PostJudith MartinAs written by a gang of three totally confused writers and directed, without apparent style, by J. Lee Thompson, it's a mystery-horror movie with a fatal flaw - the denouement, in which a half-dozen grisly murders are explained, requires almost as much footage as the murders themselves. |
| FILMINK (Australia)John NoonanA cult favourite to many due its black sense of humour and nonsensical ending, Happy Birthday to Me will be a bewilderment to others for exactly the same reasons. |
| Washington PostGary ArnoldAnother dull slasher movie (this one less gory than most). |
| User ReviewJo Lissa Wits very good, a shit load of plot twists and very little gore |
| User ReviewLee ?Fucked up movie, especially the end. One of Canada's many great late 70s early 80s slasher films. Watch on a double bill with original My Bloody Valentine for full effect. |
| User Reviewminda wJust seen this tonight and the 80s movies always seem to be. It is a must see!! When you thought it was one person they were killed ending was amazing |
