"In an old obsolete theatre a performance group are rehearsing for their new play "The Horror Musical," a drama inspired by the real life events connected to sadistic mass murderer Irving Wallace. As the group rehearse, they are totally unaware that Irving has escaped the confines of his mental instiution and is about to put some reality into their world of make believe. The slaughtered body of wardrobe mistress is found outside the theatre, devastating the entire cas. Siezing on the murder as an oppotunity to promote his play, the director moves the opening night forward forcing the actors to rehearse that night, all night, by locking them in the theatre. In the panic that follows the key is lost! The entire cast realise that they have to face a night of terror confined in the theatre, knowing that Irving is in there with them, hiding, prowling, sleecting his next victim."

I havnt seen it or can't remember it. I can't remember which. You know I like these little VHS promos tho. Cheers Luke. Would you recommend the movie?

[miyacemu]

@kulfie Cheers again Gary! I would definitely reccomend it, one of my fav 80's slashers. It's a great movie. Same director as Dellamorte Dellamore.

I havn't seen this before, but its on my wishlist. I love that cover art, its so simple, but very effective. The blood looks awesome.

[miyacemu]

@ANDREWBALLINA Definitely make sure you grab this one! It's a great slasher, highly reccomended! I think you'll really enjoy it. The cover is insanely nice!

Used to watch this on cable back in the early 90's.Great little flick.Never got round to pick it up on dvd.hopefully sum1 will give it a nice blu ray release.

Gotta love that cover art so awsome.

[miyacemu]

@TheCropsyManiac Nice! It would be more than welcome on Blu! Imagine one of those nice Arrow releases for it!? Now that would be awesome!

[miyacemu]

@TheMidniteVapour The cover is just too badass! So nice. Definitely a classic slasher!

[miyacemu]

@dawnsbrother68 aren't they all? lol the thing is, this is one that works even if it's cut, cause of the context of the kills. Like the one which takes place on stage, as the director yells directions! So cool! and, yes, the art is insanely nice!!!

[dawnsbrother68]

stage fright heavily cut in uk, great little slasher and like everyone says great cover art.
