\"\"<\/a>The Slayer<\/em><\/strong> isn\u2019t exactly top-notch 1980s horror as it is slow plodding and thinly written characters, but the atmosphere of taking place on a deserted island hold up in a house with a storm outside (and inside) approaches, it\u2019s at least an entertaining experience.<\/p>\n

\n

Plot Synopsis: <\/strong>Two young couples (SARAH KENDALL, FREDERICK J. FLYNN, CAROL KOTTENBROOK, ALAN MCRAE) set off to a secluded island for what promises to be a restful retreat. But the peace is short-lived; as a storm begins to batter the island, troubled Kay senses a malevolent presence in their midst, stalking them at every turn. Is she losing her mind, or are her childhood nightmares of a demonic assailant coming to terrifying life?<\/p>\n

Quick Hit Review: <\/strong>A little slow at times, The Slayer<\/em><\/strong> isn\u2019t exactly a great horror film from the 1980s, but the atmosphere was effective and I did at least find the story to be interesting enough to capture my attention even when the characters aren\u2019t exactly all that fascinating. If you\u2019re a fan of this era, it might be worth checking out and honestly down the line I might give it another shot.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n
