TRAILER - THE PROWLER (1981)

You may think your safe, but you're dead wrong.



Following THE PROWLER, Director Joseph Zitto would make arguably the best film in the FRIDAY THE 13TH franchise: FT13TH IV: THE FINAL CHAPTER. THE PROWLER is more than a warm-up act though. It has some classic kills that rival other horror films (the bayonet through the head is one of my favorites, it comes complete with post-kill gurgles), a smart story, and effects by Tom Savini (who also worked with Zitto on FT13TH IV). Zitto had a real gift for horror that he would later abandon for more traditional action films (MISSING IN ACTION, INVASION USA).

See you on forty deuce,
