Stage Fright
Stage Fright
A snobby musical theater camp is terrorized by a blood-thirsty killer who hates musical theater.

This was a really fun watch. A theater campy slasher comedy. Solid opening kill. Meatloaf runs a theater camp. Didn’t realize Minnie Driver was in this, and she was great. I love musicals, but the musical numbers in this weren’t very good musically, even if this lyrics were pretty funny at times. The best songs all around were actually the killers heavy metal interludes. Really fun finish with lots of familiar recognizable horror tropes. It dragged quite a bit in the opening introduction of the theater camp, but even those party were campy enough that I wasn’t ever bored. I’m definitely very curious about the Stage Fright predecessors. Are they similar? Connected? Musicals? Comedies? I’ll have to check out my fellow slasher squad reviews to see if I’m missing out on something. Really liked this one though.
