Bloody Birthday





Director: Ed Hunt

Writers: Ed Hunt and Barry Pearson

Starring: Lori Lethin and Melinda Cordell

Body Count: 8


Review: At the moment of a solar eclipse, three children are born simultaneously in the SAME town, in the SAME hospital...ten years later, the children suddenly decide to start killing people in the town (mostly teenagers, of course)...for no real reason.
There's some good deaths here (including a kid whacking the town sherrif to death with a baseball bat!) and some wonderfully stupid dialogue and subplot (some bullshit about how the alignment of the planets in the solar system makes children behave differently...don't ask me). All in all, it's not the best, but it does have it's great moments of cheese and a few good kills, and it's probably worth your time if you're looking for a good slasher flick to laugh at.

Trivia: Bloody Birthday was also released under the title Creepers. Also, the sherrif's last name is Brody, which I suppose is some misplaced homage to Jaws.
