I found this title as "Colegialas Violadas" (Violated School-girls); a title that is far from the movies' purpose. When I first watched this one I was very pleased mainly because I had fun. There are plenty of disturbing moments like the infamous saw decapitation.
The masked killer concept started two years before the movie when John Carpenter's "Halloween" stormed the genre.
The opening sequence gave me the creeps the first time and I think it's the most frightening moment in the movie.
There's plenty of gore but not in great quality. The make-up is very lame but you can't ask much from an 80's slasher. Even worse, I could only get a cut version.
The whole situation to undercover the "real" killer is pretty interesting for a slasher flick with no pretensions.
Watch it only if you're an avid slasher fan and you'll enjoy it, that's for sure.
7/10.
