The Burning
 
This in my opinion is THE best slasher movie of the 80s. Its weird it never spawned any sequels (probably a good thing I guess).
Here's a link about it:

Anyone else agree with me about it being one of the best?

I'm not sure if it is out on DVD yet.... one of those classics they haven't putting out yet could be wrong tho...

Great once it actually does what it came to do.
40 minutes gone before we get the first kill!
Way too much 'teen high Jinks'/wandering around the woods beforehand.




**SPOILER*********************
Some great bits though. The raft killing is still a powerful thing and still pretty damn unique in the way it took out so many in so short a time.

A lot of people dont even know about the burning. I dont believe it has been released in the US yet, I myself cant wait because IMO it is great slasher flick....

For sure a top slasher film, but the very end provides the best shock with that sudden snarl to the camera.
