This movie is truly a blast from the past. The characters are funny and the plot is very interesting. Personally, the best character's are Dave and Chainsaw due to their "laid back" attitudes in the film. Mark Harmon also does a good job in his role. The movie is in the mid 80's but thats what makes it so interesting.If you have not seen the movie... go rent it, you just might enjoy it. Two thumbs wayyy up.

This is truly one of Craven's best films; also I enjoyed Last House on the Left. The plot is outstanding, and the whole fantasy like environment gets your interest. Craven had about a 1.8 million dollar budget to complete this masterpiece and New Line Cinema was on the verge of taking a first class plane ride to "no wheres-ville". So when you watch this movie understand that Shaye and Craven gambled on their careers with this film. Actually, Craven had nothing to lose... his occupation before his outstanding filming career was a taxi driver. So, he was use to non extravagant living. Well, the film is truly good, scary and the actors are truly genuine.

This movie is Craven's best. It gives a realistic situation with realistic events and ending. The movie is disturbing... but that's life. The plot is very good and the acting is genuine. This is Craven's first film and one of his most interesting. Not the greatest but very close.
