Movie Review: He Knows You're Alone
Summary: 2 Stars
The opening sequence is pretty good. After that, you might as well turn it off. I guess the remake of Prom Night ripped off the villian. A guy with a crazy stare that can be anyone. It is possibly the worst villian in the history of horror. The movie is slow paced and has no blood whatsoever. Matter of fact, it has barely any cursing and no nudity. It could have easily passed for PG by 80 movie standards. Not really recommended viewing unless you want to see a pre Bossom Buddies Tom Hanks, and he is only in this film for maybe three minutes.Movie Review: Boring, Uneventful and bloodless film
Summary: 1 Stars
He Knows You're Alone is PROBABLY one of the worst horror films I have ever seen. I only recently saw it for the first time and I can't believe I actually wound up sitting through the whole thing. I can honestly saw that I have NEVER been as bored while watching a "slasher" flick as I was while viewing this.
I have to say that the WORST aspect of this film would be the killer. I am not SPOILING anything in saying that the killer has no mask or hidden identity in this movie. We see his face right off the bat as he kills his first bride-to-be. The fact that the killer's face is fully in view during his slashings is a total bore. I actually kept thinking they cast the actor for his slightly Michael Myer's-ish facial features and wide eyes. He actually kind of looked like an uncle of mine, which made me laugh. He was totally NOT scary.
The "killings" are REALLY REALLY REALLY bad. There is no gore and hardly any blood at all. Gore-hounds would HATE this movie for that fact alone.
The main heroine is a Susan Sarandon look-a-like who annoyed me throughout the whole movie. For a film made in the 80's I was surprised at how un-liberated her character was. She is getting married to a guy she barely likes as if she has no choice, and even mentions how she is going to have to deal with the fact that her fiance told her he doesn't want her to work once they are married. As if she has no right to do what she pleases. That irritated me. Also, what was up with her STRANGE relationship with her ex-boyfriend/mortician. Her behavior was excruciatingly odd to me. What engaged woman would flirt and consider starting up a relationship with an ex 2 weeks before her wedding??? WEIRD.
Bottom line: The characters were REALLY bad.
The film also blatantly copies Halloween in tons of spots. I couldn't believe some of the scenes! I was like, "That is almost the SAME shot down to a tee!" at certain points. I do NOT like copy-cats!!! ahhhh!!
Anyways, I just had to write a review to say how bad I thought this film was. I normally LOVE 80's horror, but this movie killed me with boredom.
Movie Review: sad but true

I saw this movie back on cable in the 80's when it came out, infact it was Halloween. My babysitter got so freaked out while watching this movie that she grabbed a big kitchen knife to hold onto. I remember being a little freaked out to. So when I saw that it was comming to DVD I was excited. The thing I remembered the most was the fish tank scene. I had told my girlfriend about the movie and even though she doesn't like this kind of movie she watched it anyway. She wasn't scared or creeped out in any way infact we were both extremely bored with it (the only good thing about it was the fish tank scene). This movie was better in my youth simply because I didn't know any better, that and the fact that my babysitter was so freaked out. But now that I'm older I can say without a doubt this movie just sucks, just like another movie I thought was good back then "Blue Sunshine". This is one of those times when the memory was much better than the reality.Movie Review: "They don't know we're bored"

Oh man this is really one of the worst of the 80's "slasher" movies. Tom Hanks shows up for a minute, but the last almost 90. SKIP IT
