Slumber Party Massacre II 4K 1987

Since I liked the first film in the 'The Slumber Party Massacre' series, I decided to watch the second one. The sequel turned out to be unusual, bright, attractive. According to the plot, the girl Courtney, who survived the first part goes with her friends to the suburbs to relax, make music and have sex. Along the way, she has strange dreams with lots of blood and violence. There is no murder for more than half of the movie, but there is surrealism to good music. Separately, I want to mention the style: 'Slumber Party Massacre II' consists of at least three genres: melodrama, parody, musical. And each of them shimmers and shines with its thrills. If the first part was a slick female slasher, the second part is a wild thrash-surf mix. This is the kind of movie that should become a cult movie.

One can feel when watching it both that the film is a debut and that it steals the ideas of 'A Nightmare on Elm Street'. If the original took mostly from 'Friday' and 'Halloween', 'Party 2' takes from 'Nightmare' (in every sense and in every place). Since the killer in the previous movie was the most common man, there was no point in resurrecting him. So they came up with a new one, with turbo-driven and sawtooth gadgets. He kills a lot; he rips off body parts and kisses Courtney on the lips, makes a decapitated chicken squirm, sings well... So the movie is disgusting as horror, but beautiful as cult youth thrash. Deborah Brock has no sense of slasher style, but has a great sense of comedy style. The script is female, as you can see.
