Pretty much the worst 80's slasher I've seen so far.
This film really contains nothing original, except perhaps the denouement at the end, but I personally thought that was very bad. You can't take a homosexual murderer in a crazy SMS suit seriously, can you? If the makers had made it in a more satirical way, I might have understood it, but this was just very bad.
The acting is also not of significant quality and the set is just boring and ugly.
The tension doesn't really come across because of the overacting cast and the cheap soundtrack. In addition, most murders are not shown and the highlight in that regard was the elevator scene that had also been done before in a Dick Maas film.
A film that I have already spent too many words talking about. Low budget junk from the top shelf.

Disappointing slasher film that simply adopts many horror elements from other films, but never fails to be exciting. We have seen the location of the shop building and mannequins several times, but it is not properly applied here. Visually poor execution of sets and lighting. Also very much the same because after an hour you have only seen a few lame kills outside, where the couples also enjoy themselves with some fiddling in bed and some nudity here or there. The three ladies Bunky Jones, Annette Sinclair and Donna Baltron can be seen naked for a moment. The killer fails to impress and comes across as a bit bland. Certainly his motives, which are revealed at the end, are simply very lame. The kills are also very poorly executed. 4/10
