The 80s SLASHER VAULTS 8: forgotten SOV slasher, backwoods bummer, and end of era goodie
In this installment, it’s a slasher smorgasbord of three random flicks that got lost in the video store shelves back in the day. In my opinion, one of them should have gotten more love and deserves a DVD release. NIGHT … Continue reading
