a lot of guys hate this film, well, I used to, too. But after giving this film a second stir, I kinda appreciate it a little more. It took more emphasis on the stalks and whodunit than the actual murders, this "slasher film" takes the murder mystery route instead.

This creature feature earns a spot in this list for the reason it shapes itself as a slasher film WHILE being a creature feature film as well.
