Surprisingly good acting
Groundhog day slasher!
Firstly this is a comedy horror not a straight up horror film.

I have to say I expected nothing from this film, I knew none of the actors and was just looking to pass an hour or so.

I'd like to say I loved this film, it was very 90's slasher poking fun at itself and not taking itself very serious at all, I found the plot unique and was honestly quite surprised by the "killer".

I think if you are looking for something light and breezy rather than a straight up horror this is perfect!

Light Horror
Thin Air is an extremely enjoyable book where the mountain is as big a character as the people on it. Why it works is it us incredibly subtle in its telling. If you want a spooky read it's well recommended.

The one. The only. The classic.
One of the original boogeyman films is still a classic. Some common horror elements used even now originated in this film and still work.

No CGI or campy effects in this film, just raw suspense. Certainly not a hugely bloody or gory horror movie, it relies on light and dark and some use of the "jump scare" before it even had a name.

I can't get the eerie theme music out of my head!

Time to rewatch!
