    possibly the most frightening killer in a slasher flick

    A must see! if you want to watch a movie with false scares, creepy environment, creepy music, and entertaining death sequences, then

    "Hide and Go Shriek" is the perfect movie.

    The flaws about this movie are bad actors, and a boring plot (8 teens stay in a place and get stalked and killed by someone). This movie is different from others because we get to know the killer at the end, and BELIEVE ME, it will be scary.

    This movie will sure give you the creeps...

    Oddball Slash Fest

    Hide and Go Shriek had the unfortunate luck of coming at the end of the original 80's slasher cycle where these films were lucky to play in a theater or two before getting dumped onto video. As a film, it's not as bad as you'd think. There are a few creepy moments here and there (especially the killer's fetish for dressing up like the victims they've just killed so they can fool the next victims into thinking that they are one of their friends) and there's a pretty gnarly decapitation by elevator that's truly a work of art.

    The real selling point here is the heavy dollop of late-80's cheese on display. Everyone's clothes, hair, and makeup couldn't be more late-80's if they tried, which gives the film a fun time capsule feel. You just know it's one of those movies that could have only been made at a very specific place and time.

    The ending killer reveal is so bizarre and off the wall that it must be seen to be believed.

    Some Decent Thrills

    Some friends spend the night in a furniture store one of their parents owns and are stalked and killed by a killer who likes to dress up as the victims they've just killed.

    You have to admire a movie that features a killer with a flair for playing dress up. It's also nice that the characters in this movie aren't complete idiots. The minute they realize someone's killing their friends, they stick together and fight the killer together. It does lessen some of the suspense and leaves the body count a little low by slasher standards, but I liked the guts it took to stick by that choice.

    This movie is a nice try!

    This movie has it's good moments... It has scary scenes, scary music, gore, original killings, and an original killer.

    Give this movie a try. If you feel scared during the movie, I bet that at the end of it you'll feel like an idiot because the killer is VERY... Ok, you'll have to find it out heh heh.

    It didn't make me hide and go shriek.🔪

    Hide and go shriek is an 80s slasher about some teen's having a sleepover in a furinture store.

    I love the furniture store setting, i wish there were more horror movies set there.

    The kills are good. And the acting is good.

    There is some flawes as that it doesn't seem like they care about their friends dying, or how stupid the characters are, but that's a problem in most slashers.

    So overall a suprisingly good slasher and i recommend watching it.
