Dear Folks,
Leonard Maltin sells this film short by giving it only an average rating in his book.
Mr.Maltin writes that it's noteworthy because it was the film that introduced Brooke Shields.
Talk about drastically underrating this Classic!

well with all the people on here saying how great this film is it makes me wonder why it's rating on here is only at 6.5??? what the fuc# this film is better than 90% of all the horror films that have ever been made. it deserves to be at, at the very least 8.0 stars on imdb.

Dear Matheusmarchetti,
I don't think Mr.Maltin is one of "the worst critics ever"(checkout Michael Medved!!!).
But this writer feels that Leonard Maltin(or whoever reviewed this film on his staff)needs to take a second look at this Classic film.

Michael Medved is the worst critic alive. I did not have any love for Joel Siegel either when he was among the living. Maltin tends to undertate films that have some merit while overrating those that are awful. Maybe if it had subtitles he would of liked it better.
I do not listen to critics anymore. I did more so when I was young, but now
I only read the bad reviews for fun and not the goods ones.
