'Intruder' has a lot going on and some of it is cool. However, some of it isn't and that makes the quick runtime feel longer than it truly is. Style points for making grocery stores scarier than they already are.

Rated: 2/5

Intruder's effective due to the fact it's one of the slasher sub-genre's best offerings from the 1980s and leans towards a gory capitalist critique.

Rated: 4/5

Cinema Crazed

A hidden slasher gem that manages to make use of its single setting story.

Rated: 3.5/4

It's a good old-fashioned '80s slasher flick with Ted Raimi cranking the jams on his Walkman.

The meat slicer kill is disgusting, and I love it. Rest in peace, Scott Spiegel.

Cleanup on Aisle 4: Intruder has a novel setting for a slasher flick, but only manages to stock up on genre clichés.

Intruder has a few key elements that scream Sam Raimi, but overall, it's a goofy slasher with lame kills.

A true 80's slasher. It takes a little bit to get going but it's setting up a good story with great characters in the meantime. A must for slasher fans.
