31: New Year's Evil

This week Bryan and Dave kick off the new year and hit peak holiday horror movie burnout when they go deep with the 1980 slasher movie, New Year's Evil. Cannon Group wasn't exactly known for horror movies and it'll take them a few years before they work it out but these nascent attempts to get a piece of the action during the golden age of the slasher turned out some really weird misfires and New Year's Evil is leading the charge. More like a giallo than anything else, it seems to possess a profound misunderstanding of what audiences were expecting from a slasher movie and delivers some seriously silly murder setpieces.
