In the pantheon of the slasher boom of the late 70’s early 80’s there are some better known titles that caught the public’s attention right away, but for every “Halloween” or “Friday The 13th” that came down the pipeline, there was a little “gem” that followed in its footsteps. Some of these underappreciated titles truly deserve that status, I’m sure that we all could count about a dozen horrible “classics” that came in the wake of Carpenter’s blueprint. But the great thing about these movies is that no matter how bad they are, if you have a soft spot in your heart for horror, you are at least assured a smirk laughing at the conventions of the genre on display for your sarcastic comments. There is no better party film then the low budget 80’s slasher film.

With each new slasher film came a different gimmick that was designed to distinguish each film from their counterparts, Jason had his hockey mask, Leatherface had his chainsaw, and Angela Baker, well she um he had his…you know. As silly and absurd as most of these gimmicks may seem, they all pale in comparison to the gimmick used by the killer in Robert Deubel’s “Girls Nite Out”. A big ole hot plate of mess that never the less has its heart firmly in the right place. Where the demented lunatic stalks the nubile coeds of a college campus donned in a…..giant bear costume?? Furries beware; this is your ultimate nightmare come to life!!
