Graduation Day (1981)

Graduation Day (1981)
Member Rating:  
This standard formula slasher-thriller involves an equal-opportunity psycho busily pitchforking both male and female members of a high-school track team. The killer's motivation is supposedly linked to a similar murder which occurred 40 years ago at an ill-fated graduation dance. This tedious time-waster scores a few brownie points by way of creative casting (be sure to catch Vanna White as one of the toothsome victims), but that's about it. Slasher movie completists may note the plot's strong resemblance to that of The Prowler, a lesser-known but far more stylish film released the same year. Future scream-queen-in-training Linnea Quigley appears in a small doomed-teen role. ~ Cavett Binion, Rovi

Not one of the better 80s slasher films. Mystery killer was good but some deaths were stupid. Acting was pretty bad too. If you like slashers worth a watch once. If you don't love slashers pass on this one.

There's a little too much information on the cover of this DVD in relation to the final scenes. Even without it, if you can't figure out who the killer is after the first 15 minutes, you'll need to go back to solving Scooby Doo mysteries. Oh yeah, "The Gangster Rock" made me wanna kill myself. And the the music playing during one of the final scenes is a complete Fridy the 13th rip-off. For 80's horror completist only.
