Movie Reviews of He Knows You're Alone

Movie Review: Best of the Halloween imitators and Tom Hanks's first film!!
Summary: 5 Stars

He Knows You're Alone is the best of the Halloween imitators and is Tom Hanks's first film. It was originally released in 1980, during a time when there were new horror films being released nearly every week. The film concerns a psychotic, jilted bridegroom who stalks and kills brides-to-be, their bridesmaids and anyone else connected with their weddings. It was obviously a low-budget effort, but benefits from tight direction, a good script and a likeable heroine, Caitlin O'Heaney as Amy and a good supporting cast, including Tom Hanks, in a minor role, making his film debut. Director Armand Mastroianni is a cousin of the actor Marcello Mastroianni. The most memorable thing about the film is the previously mentioned psychotic killer. He doesn't speak a word thoughout the film, but his presence is always conveyed in the most chilling and suspenseful ways. There are some truly terrifying moments. There are also some very clever film-within-a-film scenes. This is one DVD release that I will definitely be acquiring ASAP and I can heartily recommend it to anyone else.

Movie Review: Epitome of the horror genre
Summary: 5 Stars

This movie is an excellent example of the horror genre. Just low budget enough to remind you that the creators had to be creative to scare you. The only big budget horror movies that I've seen that effectively did this were the Car and the Scream Trilogy. The only dislike is I can't find the song It's the Night Again anywere on the net. Apparantly the director found it was cheaper to hire someone to record songs for the movie than license songs of the day. Hence, it is not able to be found anywhere. Great movie though with good acting along with one of Tom Hanks first appearances in feature film.

Movie Review: Overlooked
Summary: 5 Stars

I love this movie. The music is great (total 70's obnoxiousness), the atmosphere is good, and it's well acted. Also some good actors is this movie (Paul Gleason, and of course Tom Hanks first role). Yes, it's a copycat (somewhat) of Halloween. No, there is no gore. But that's what I like about it! The death scenes are creative, especially the first one (but that knife was way too small). Recommend, if you like cheesy horror flicks without gore. If you're looking for gore, go look some more.

Movie Review: Scared The Hell Out Of Me!
Summary: 5 Stars

Well it scared the hell out of me as a kid at least.. I watched it again about ten years ago and it wasn't quite as frightening...

TOM HANKS is in it as a small bit part..

but yeah The Theater scene is pretty freaky!
