SILENT SCREAM (1979)


I've never really heard of thos movie but I picked it up at a horror con with 2 others that were 3 for $50. I'm always a sucker for a good deal and always looking out for hidden gems I may have missed. Well unlike most times I actually found one. Silent scream is a tense little slasher about college kids being offed one by one in brutal fashion after moving into suggested student housing. The movie is fun in that retro way and the story and twists are surprisingly good. That being said I can understand why it's not referred to that much. Although entertaining it's just not all that memorable. Still in the history of slashers it's a classier one that's well made with a great performance by scream queen Barbara Steele.

BOX OFFICE: $8M

3.5/5
