Hell Night reconfigures the slasher as social struggle, with Marti not just its final girl, but also its working-class heroine. And while she may continue to embrace liberty and equality, Marti learns to turn her back on fraternity.

1/4

You know a movie is in trouble when what is happening on the screen inspires daydreams. I had lasted through the first reel, and nothing had happened. Now I was somewhere in the middle of the third reel, and still nothing had happened.

Hell Night is sheer hell to sit through.

2/4

While slasher-flick aficionados prefer their pictures with generous servings of both gore and T&A, Hell Night is relatively restrained on both fronts, making it a good bet for family viewing around Christmastime. (OK, that might be a slight exaggeration.)

...despite no sequels, reboots or remakes, this semi-original shocker shouldn't be forgotten...

It has really nothing to say, and I found that I couldn't quite love it, but it's much better-crafted than it needed to be. The music is striking...

Hell Night is a fun little 80s slasher that may not compete with the decade's classics, but remains enjoyable for its cool kills and interesting twists.

A instant classic Slasher with a stellar cast. The kills were awesome. Loved the setting and directing. Tim Treakle

Filme mais ou menos, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas de terror são mais ou menos, a história é fraca, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme, os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom

I guess I got a soft spot for this flick from growing up spending my Halloween nights in a college town. That mixes with my soft spot for Linda Blair’s one of a kind charismatic magnetism, making this a great little nostalgic monster party.

Would actually be a cool little slasher if not for the painfully slow pace.

There are no surprises here but it is effective.
