Canada took the slasher movie to the next level when the country produced the trendsetting BLACK CHRlSTMAS in 1974, at the height of what has become known as 'Canuxploitation'. Later shockers from the nation of moose, Mounties and maple syrup included the equaIly effective MY BLOODY VALENTINE (1981) and HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME (1981) but by the turn of the eighties the terror-trend was drying up... at Ieast until the pIasma-spiIling shocks of POPCORN in 1991! This is Canadian sIice and dice action par excelIence - and returns to the good oId days of splashed blood, high body counts and a mysterious killer as a young female screenwriter (played by the great Scream Queen JiIl SchoeIen from THE STEPFATHER and CUTTlNG CLASS) suffers nightmares of a strange figure who may weII be breaking into the 'reeI' world... Postmodern and provocative, and featuring a genre ensembIe cast that incIudes Dee WaIIace Stone (THE HOWLlNG) and KelIy Jo Minter (THE PEOPLE UNDER THE STAIRS), POPCORN has maintained a folIowing of macabre movie fans for decades since its reIease! |
