6/10
"Good Horror/Slasher Flick!"
7 February 2016
Warning: Spoilers
This 1983 horror film stars John Vernon, Samantha Eggar and Lynne Griffin. The late, Vernon (Animal House, Killer Klowns from Outer Space) plays film/play director, Jonathan Stryker who is working on a new project. Eggar plays Samantha Sherwood, a respected actress who auditions for the lead, "Audra" and decides to do research on it by being committed to a mental institution. She eventually flees and learns that Jonathan left her there intentionally and has 6 other actresses auditioning at his mansion. Soon, a mysterious killer starts wiping out the women one by one. Is Jonathan trying to literally make the final cut? Is Samantha trying to get her revenge? or Are one of the actresses willing to kill just to get the part? Griffin (Black Christmas) plays actress/comedienne, Patti O'Connor. This is a good horror/slasher flick with a decent cast and eerie score that fans of the genre must view at least once.
