Review in a Nutshell: Savaged by critics as derivative and derogatory when first released, My Bloody Valentine (1981) is a gem among the slasher subgenre for its attention to detail, strong production design, sympathetic characters and gruesome gore effects.

Review in a Nutshell: A self-aware slasher made long before Scream cemented the conventions of subgenre, Jason Lives has a brisk pace and an irreverent sense of humor that make it both an interesting 80’s cultural artifact and an easy viewing experience.
