its funny what time will do in the horror film genre.
I remember when this came out people were shitting all over it for being a poor mans friday the 13th.
I loved all things horror so I thought it was ok ..
(didnt Fisher Stevens get his fingers snipped off ?)

i havent seen it since it was released.

but give 20 years or so and these films can stand on their own..

Very good scrore too, i have it on tape.

The fingers is during the raft scene. It may be Fisher Stevens.

Still a very dull film for half it's running time though.
very neraly HALF OVER before ANYONE dies!

Compare that to "Sleepaway Camp 2" which is nearing double figures by then!

Great in parts. but way too slow to get going and do what it was designed to do.

do you guys remember that other loony in the woods pic with daryll hannah, Rachel Ward, Adrian Zmed - called The Final Terror ?

its cool to go back to these films and see people who are 'names now'

Hannah did horror even before that in The Fury..

The best thing about "The Final terror" is the great location and cinematography.
Those trees look amazing.

Great glop fx by Savini, but does take ages to get going.

Great pic Zwoti! Yeh The Burning is quite slow moving but that adds to the tense horrible shit when it does happen. There is always the fast-foward button to skip thru all the boring bits.....and head straight to the killing/nudity ;)
