So did you ace the test, big guy?

Final Exam (1981)

Anyone else see the bowl cut?

      Hot on the heels of other soon-to-be classic slasher films, we're treated to a slightly boring, uninteresting dry hump featuring another nobody-type slayer that looks like Anton Chgurh from No Country For Old Men. It also reinforces the 'all serial killers drive vans' stereotype which was really more about function over form.

     Small college in Somewhere Statesota, typical early '80s Animal House wannabe college students fuck around and do frat stuff. And of course, all the women in college seem to care about is boys, boys, BOYS!!!....clearly not concerned with a career. We all know it's an asinine portrayal so we'll ignore it and move on. Some dude in a van starts creeping the college co-eds and does us a HUGE favor and starts offing all the really annoying students (which is ALL of them) and some damn fun-hater kills him off in the end. Pity. I liked his work. 

The man was an ARTIST!!!

Sadly, the kill count wasn't as high it should have been and it only included stabbing and strangulation. He needed more time to hone his craft but mistakes cost him everything. Such wasted potential.

Monday: Um....I was less confused about Disco Exorcist...
