Suspensful,gritty and violent.The sense of isolation in a film has rarely been matched.

I'm not over keen on the artwork but i do like the fact they look like films from the same series with the lit up motif and text on both.

I imagine they look better in your hand though.

It's WAY above many of Craven's films,including Last House on the Left.

Didn't rate Last House much either Reaps. I quite like Deadly Blessing. I did consider Nightmare On Elm Street to be his masterpiece but last viewing left me rather underwhelmed. I have to admit i think Scream is probably his best film, though I've a few yet to watch.
