This gem from back in 1981 proves Tobe Hooper was once a good horror director. Not a high body count. Not a lot of action at first. What this film shows is how seedy a lot of carnivals can actually be. It makes great use of the carnival setting. At times it is almost surreal. And yes a lot of inbred mutants are at carnivals. Just check out the Hamilton County Fair here in town in August.
Overall this a good little slasher. Complete with some tribute to those before it. Also the survivor girl was a little different this time. And Kevin Conway plays the role of 3 different scumbags. Check it out.
