A 80's slasher film with no nudity?


That fact alone makes this movie an utter failure in my book.

Show me the holes!

Some of the best slasher flicks have no nudity. If a movie is *only* good because of nudity then it's not actually a good movie.

I disagree. Nudity does often serve a purpose, especially when it comes to slasher flicks. You sound like a prude. Does it really bother you if a topless blonde answers the telephone during a rainstorm?

Im not a prude at all. I have no problem with nudity in movies--I have many movies with tons of nudity--that was not my point at all. My point was that the OP states that a film is a complete failure if there are no boobs and that's a silly comment, IMO. Me saying that a film being good ONLY if there is nudity means it really isn't good in the first place is not at all the same thing as me saying I am bothered by nudity.

Lmao what the hell did he say that made him sound like a prude?

CG gore is the worst thing that has ever happened to the horror genre.

Carson doesn't really think I'm a prude--he is following me to boards I post on and disagreeing with everything I say just to get a rise out of me because I upset him with a comment I made elsewhere. On another board he said I'm sick because I defended nudity and cussing in a movie and here he says I'm a prude so you see, he's just being an ass on purpose.

Carson_Wells, it's a bit rich of you to be calling people prudes about this, but then you make insulting over the top attacks against people for their appearances, like the actress Heather Matazzaro. I guess nudity is fine as long as it's someone you're attracted to, but someone you don't find attractive, the sight of them makes you want to throw up. Kunt.

None of the chicks in this are all that hot so the lack of nudity isn't that big a deal.

reply

The blonde lead and her brunette bestie are good looking. As is the blonde at the very beginning.

Some nudity wouldn't have hurt and would have improved the movie but a slasher can work without nudity. Black Christmas and The Texas Chain Saw Massacre being two notable examples.

I didn't mind the lack of nudity. I watched it for the kills. If i want to see tits and ass, I'll watch something else. Do 80's slashers have much nudity aside from quick boob and ass shots anyway?
