Ah, the early '80s, the hay-day of the American slasher flick. Close cousin of the Italian giallo. Violence, gore and teenage nudity were the staples and the setting usually camp or a nice secluded rural area. Kids happily tromping around, getting high, having sex and getting killed by a (usually) masked or unseen murderer. The Friday the 13th franchise, The Burning, Sleepaway Camp and so-on and so-forth. We all know and love them. Not terribly original but usually fun in some way and something about each one sets them apart. This is not the case with Don't Go In the Woods... Alone!. (READ MORE!)
