Welcome to another Installment of Saturday Slasher Cinema featuring the 1981 Slasher Film The Prowler Directed by Joseph Zito, and Written By Neal Barbera and Glenn Leopold. The Movie gained a Cult Following in the Years following its Release, and has been Noted for its Hard-Edged Violence-Showcasing Special Effects bu the One and Only Tom Savini- as well as its Dreamlike Atmosphere. The Prowler has been Named One of the Greatest Slasher Films of All Time by Several Publications, including Complex and Paste Magazines.
Synopsis:
An Unknown Psychotic Killer, Clad in World War II U.S. Army Fatigues, Stalks a Small New Jersey Town Hell Bent on Reliving a Grisly (and Unsolved) 35 Year Old Double Homicide. The Prowler Focuses His Murderous Desires on a Group of Collage Kids holding a Annual Graduation Dance, and all Hell Breaks Loose as the Bodies Begin to Pile Up!
What The Critics Have To Say:
“While it does get lost in the mix of the other slashers of the decade, The Prowler is still worth a watch. Fans of the slasher genre will appreciate the movie the most!”
– Kellie Haulotte (1428 Elm)
“A film with these specific strengths ought to be at least worth it for the [slasher] genre faithful, and it is soley for the faithful.”
-Tim Brayton (Antagony & Ecstasy)
“Another of the fine collaborations between Tom Savini and Joseph Zito, both of whom know how to deliver damn fine slasher fare.”
-Felix Vasquez Jr. (Cinema Crazed)
“A better than expected entry into the most despised of genres.”
-James Kendrick (Q Network Film Desk)
Enjoy.
We Hope You Enjoyed this Tale of Sociopathic Slaughter as Much as We Did.
