- parcolan2h agoThe FHD is a brilliant transfer, next time I will watch the UHD transfer, thank you 88 Films for the nice treatment of this classic
- SamNovember 16, 2025couldn't get over how bad the blood looked but the title sequence was so beautiful
- Andy Davidson | folknhell.comAugust 18, 2025Nowhere near as good as its subsequent legend would have you expect. It's not so much fok horror as a film about folk who are simply horrible.
