The cast gives a strong performance and Kane Hodder standing out as an incredibly intimidating villain. It's like an '80s slasher movie, with the dialogue being somewhat tongue-in-cheek and campy. Additionally, there are several hilarious moments throughout that offer humor against the horror-inducing action.

Because the budget was $1 million, most places were reused from previous movies. The boat house that was used twice in the movie was a prime example.
