There are murders at Christmas at a sorority house, and in typical fashion the young women are whittled down until there is only one left. The characterisations are not particularly good, neither is the acting, while the plot has an enormous hole you could force a giant Christmas tree through – if a young woman has gone missing and the police are involved, wouldn’t they think to search the house she lives in? (Interestingly, John Saxon is the lead policeman, which suggests Wes Craven was taking notes as well). It’s a fairly entertaining watch – particularly when adding a little grit to festivities at this time of year – but there’s nothing overly exciting about it.

Two questions:

Has anyone seen the remake?

Didn’t Margot Kidder ever look young?]]> http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/81307010 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1173382910s/280513.jpg 1309606 F.R. http://photo.goodreads.com/users/1215538383p2/1309606.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/user/show/1309606-f-r Sun, 20 Dec 2009 03:12:06 -0800 The Prisoner of Zenda (Paperback) by Anthony Hope]]> http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/81466640 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1179795235s/956823.jpg 1309606 F.R. http://photo.goodreads.com/users/1215538383p2/1309606.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/user/show/1309606-f-r Sun, 20 Dec 2009 03:07:42 -0800 more...]]> The Island (Paperback) by Victoria Hislop]]> http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/81405757 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1179494952s/922991.jpg 1309606 F.R. http://photo.goodreads.com/users/1215538383p2/1309606.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/user/show/1309606-f-r Sat, 19 Dec 2009 03:39:39 -0800
