Review of Schizoid

Schizoid (1980)
9/10
hidden gem!
25 November 2020
Obviously massively influenced by Halloween, this was part of the early wave of post Friday American slashers that flooded the market in the 1980s. I enjoy the shots and the soundtrack is phenomenal and spacey and the sets are gorgeous, especially Dr. Fales' house. On that note, Klaus Kinski is wonderful, as always. And I love that guy that plays her ex husband, he was in Body Double and Murder she Wrote. Cute too. This one is more on the violent and scary side than the cheesy side. Honestly a hidden gem, this is one nobody knows about but it's a top tier slasher- you know, the kind you come across every once in a while that keeps you watching cheesefest after cheesefest in hopes you'll come across another. I guessed who the killer was in the first third :P
