Title: [b]Intruder - (1989)[/b] Post by: voltron on February 18, 2010, 12:13:16 AM Decent late 80s slasher about a maniac stalking onwers and emloyees of a local supermarket working a late shift. The cashier Jennifer has a crazy boyfriend who just got out of prison who is hanging around the store. Is it the boyfriend doing the killings, or is it somewone else?
Again, ths is a decent late 80s slasher with lots of bad acting, lame direction, some surprisingly effective gore, and some small cameos by Bruce Campbell and Sam Raimi. Overall, I'd give it a 6.5 out of 10. :thumbup: Title: Re: [b]Intruder - (1989)[/b] Post by: Paquita on February 18, 2010, 01:15:58 AM I really liked it! I don't know if the acting was bad.. I certainly didn't notice, but if it was, it wasn't uncomfortably bad. I liked how all the characters got along.. I didn't want anyone to die. The ending was good too! Someone should buy that movie for me.

Hmmmmm... :twirl: :smile: :twirl: Title: Re: [b]Intruder - (1989)[/b] Post by: voltron on May 28, 2010, 10:56:00 PM I sincerely apologise for my nitpicking of this flick. Rewatched it several times and I've grown to appreciate it a lot more. It is a solid, no bulls**t (albeit somewhat late entry) slasher. The acting is decent, the camerawork is creative, and the gore is top notch. I now proudly give it an 8.5 out of 10. :cheers:

Scott Spiegel the director goes back a long way with the Raimi's and Bruce. It's a good one from what I remember.
I remember seeing the making of this on the Sam Raimi episode of The Totally Strange Film show that used to come on TLC eons ago. I miss that show, it is how I found out about Tsui Hark's weird and wonderful films. Title: Re: [b]Intruder - (1989)[/b] Post by: Rev.
