The Initiation (1984)
REVIEWER RATING:
7/10
I was quite surprised by this film. I actually thought it was rather good. It's not necessary your average 80's slasher, because this one actually had a good plot. Starts off with a young sorority girl having these nightmares of a man burning. We later learn that the nightmares are caused of a childhood incident involving her parents. At first the film looks like it might go towards a different direction rather than just a slasher flick, because of the nightmares, but it quickly turns into a slasher when a nurse at a local mental institution gets murdered and six patients escape.
story, as opposed to your standard ghost tale and manages to be a slight improvement over the man's previous additions to the genre.
