Film Review: The Burning

See the source image

Release date: May 8th 1981

Story: A local summer camp is reopening after a horrible incident five years ago when its former groundskeeper is horribly disfigured in a fire when a prank goes wrong. But what they don't know is that the said groundskeeper is still alive and escapes from hospital to seek revenge.

My thoughts: This is your standard slasher killer movie. A derange and disfigured killer slaying people in hideous and horrifying ways until one if left to face the killer alone. The summer camp setting may be an overused place to set a story (Friday the 13th and many others have done this before and after) but it does things differently to keep it new. Those who are horror fans will like this one.

My score: Three stars.
