The Burning (1981)

My quick rating - 5.9/10. I vaguely remember watching this one on Showtime back as a kid, and even though I have seen it since on VHS, I saw a Blu-ray just came out uncut and remastered, so I definitely want to check it out. You can also by clicking the poster below. This flick has a very identifiable Friday the 13th feel to it, but then again, it had only been a year since that classic had been released. Certain things I have already noticed that were not a big deal back then are, first, Jason Alexander and Larry Joshua. Not names that ended up known for horror. And a name that is CERTAINLY known for horror, Tom Savini, is taking care of the make-up and effects, which we all know means gore. You will also immediately see another name that goes along with a very different kind of horror: Harvey Weinstein. All of this and you haven't even gotten to the movie itself.
