Gory and Groovy!

Well, this is a very underrated film! I am so glad I stumbled across it. I just watched it and loved it! From beginning to end it did a great job at conveying a vintage authenticity. This is a rare bona fide homage. A great example is the kids that bring in the ghetto blaster to the shop. I felt like I watching a genuine 70s movie for a minute. My mind was telling me, wait, the quality is very modern and yet, it feels and looks so vintage (I rarely know anything about a movie I watch, apart from the genre - I prefer it that way). anyway, from then on, I was hooked! The attention to detail was excellent. They definitely knew what they were doing. The cast was very well chosen with a great main ensemble. On top of all that, great cinematography, effects (yikes!), editing, direction and score makes this really stand out for me. Definitely as good as It Follows. Believe me, if you consider yourself a true horror fan, you will love this film. I was a teenager in the 80s (I turned 12yo in 1984) and I know a thing or two about movies from that era. I hope there's a sequel! And please give us more homages!!
