Joe Bob Briggs Quote: “What this movie had was the greatest ad campaign in modern film history; everybody saw those commercials, everybody got it. Kids having sex, kids being butcher cause they were having too much sex. The simple equation that made the slasher film what it is today and Leonard Maltin I don’t care what you say about this being a retched flick, get some new lens on those goggles of your buddy, this is a great movie!”
