The Omicron Killer is full of mystery, suspense, self-awareness, smarts, and gruesome kills. This spectacle solidified that Jeff Knite has what it takes to direct horror cinema. I sometimes forget that the slasher sub-genre can rarely be "elevated horror" or master classes like Psycho (1960), Peeping Tom (1960), The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (1974), Black Christmas (1974), Halloween (1978), Sleepaway Camp (1983), A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984), Child's Play (1988), Candyman (1992), & Scream (1996). As an avid horror fan, this is the best film of 2024. This amazing mash-up of "Friday The 13th" & "Halloween" made Hallowen Ends look like amateur hour. Jeff Knite's "The Omicron Killer" deserves all of the collective praise from critics and audiences. I am thankful that we finally have a new masterpiece added to the horror library that will age like fine wine.
