~Mind Blowing: Search for this movie immediately. It can only be described as pure greatness and possible an instant classic.

~So Good: Highly recommended because for one reason or another it stands out above the usual fair. Put the movie on your radar as it wont disappoint.

~In the Middle: The movie is a nothing special, average affair. It may entertain in the short term but it will be easily forgettable in the long haul.

Unhinged (1982)

Starring: Laurel Munson
Director: Don Gronquist

Premise:
After their car breaks down in the woods, three girls are rescued by the owner of a remote mansion. The host offers to put them up until help can arrive. Soon the girls find strange things happening.

My Take:
The movie had a reputation for being one of the "video nasties" and banned for several years in the UK. I honestly dont know why. It really isn't all that gory.
Familiar plot is brought down by terrible acting. The only thing that saved this flick was the incredible twist ending that I never saw coming.

Rating: Warning
