I've seen Cronenberg's classics like Videodrome, Scanners, the brood, and recently Shivers. I just picked this up in bluray and I'm excited. - @Friday, October 27, 2017 9:38 AM

I was 7 years old in the way back of my Fathers 69 Chevy Nova Wagon when this was at a drive in Az, me and the siblings were suppose to be sleeping, it was the 3rd movie playing at that time and we all snuck in my parents room at the foot of their bed when we got home, it was so scary at that time :) Good ole days!! Both parents are R.I.P now but great memories man!! - @Monday, November 28, 2016 11:24 PM

Wait a tick, isn't the scream at 0:09 taken straight from Black Christmas? The scene where Olivia Hussey's character has her hair pulled by the killer. - @Friday, April 11, 2014 5:53 PM

Love Croneburgh's films. I saw this years ago and it stuck with me ever since. This is what I mean about real horror. . Brilliant film. The documentary type way it's shot gives it that air of reality too. - @Saturday, June 15, 2013 6:21 AM

Jesus Christ...that's like a bad trip waiting to happen. I've watched fun goofy horror on acid and mushrooms, stuff like Ginger Snaps, but this sort of thing would just be horribly unsettling. - @Tuesday, May 7, 2013 11:17 AM

Very good. The sequence of TV and radio reports and interviews in this film give it a climate of documentary-like real-looking events. Reminds me of "NOTLD" classic. - @Friday, March 22, 2013 10:54 AM

This movie will always have a special place in my heart. My aunt, who passed away in 1993 and her boyfriend took me to the drive in to see this movie. I was way too young to understand it. I just remember being sad that the rabid mom obviously killed her baby. It was so shocking and disturbing. - @Saturday, October 20, 2012 1:59 AM
