Home for the Holidays (1972)
A great yuletide horror film!
This Christmas thriller is unique for a bunch of reasons. In addition to a solid cast and good acting, this TV movie creates a surprisingly early slasher atmosphere, replete with a mysterious hooded killer, wet rain, and woodsy setting. Julie Harris, Sally Field, Jessica Walter, and Eleanor Parker are all superb.
For those who like their Yuletide cheer mingled from time to time with a good thriller or slasher flick, try this kissing cousin to Bob Clark's "Black Christmas." It's sure to bring a smile to your face around the warm, Christmas fire!
Madman (1981)
MADMAN is a great time capsule of '80s wood slasher flicks
MADMAN falls distinctly within that sub genre of "mad killer in the woods" and does so with dutiful obedience. The death sequences are solid, the killer clumbering and terrifying, the camp counselors harmless and naive enough, the body count decent. A great period in modern horror films, this solid little Friday the 13th clone deserves its rightful place.
Peace,
