Senseless and totally ordinary slasher thriller that seems to "pay homage" to "Halloween II", which was made one year earlier. It has all the customary elements down pat: the hospital setting, the maniac on the loose, terrified victims-to-be, knives that get bloody....But it shows such shameless disregard for logic and motivation that it's really hard for a viewer to stay interested for the whole (overly long) duration of the film. Michael Ironside was physically a right choice for his role, but because he is given no personality and no special traits, he becomes one of the least interesting villains of slasher films that you'll ever see. (*1/2)
