class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">An 80s slasher movie that somehow I was unaware of until just this year?\u00a0 Idk how that even happens but here we are.\u00a0 I guess with that generic of a title it is bound to happen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Rush Week is about a girl named Toni transfers to a new college where girls are disappearing.\u00a0 She is a journalist student and investigates the disappearances.\u00a0 Of course there\u2019s a guy in a mask taking them out, happens.\u00a0 The plot is generic, the title is generic, the killer looks like he got the outfit from Spirit Halloween, generic.\u00a0 Is there anything about this movie that stands out from the pack?\u00a0 Not really.\u00a0 I do have to mention that Kathleen Kinmont is topless in this, so the complete tease in Halloween 4 that I got when I was 14 was finally fulfilled.\u00a0 Also Gregg Allman is in this, why?\u00a0 Your guess is as good as mine, and shit I don\u2019t even remember seeing him in it.\u00a0 I tended to get distracted a fair amount during this movie.\u00a0 One other person of mention is Dominick Brascia as Peeper, aka Joey the fat slow kid from Friday the 13th V that gets axed by Vick over a candy bar.\u00a0 A freakin candy bar, my lord.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The special effects aren\u2019t anything special because the kills aren\u2019t anything special either.\u00a0 There isn\u2019t a whole lot of creativity here, it is a cookie cutter genre flick that tries nothing new.\u00a0 Most of the movie is just pranks, like this is a teen college sex comedy or something.\u00a0 Think Revenge of the Nerds or Animal House meets bad slasher.\u00a0 As far as college slashers go, there are a few I\u2019d watch before this.\u00a0 Sorority House Massacre is one that surprised the hell out of me for how decent it was.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Was this great?\u00a0 Hell no, it was boring!\u00a0 Was it the worst slasher I\u2019ve ever seen?\u00a0 Not by a long shot.\u00a0 That speaks more on the quality of say 70% of the genre than the quality of this movie.\u00a0 This is not a good movie.\u00a0 Will I watch this again?\u00a0 Probably not, but for a one time watch I could\u2019ve done much worse and have.\u00a0 I give this a D, while it is bad, it is better than many I\u2019ve seen before.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rush Week (1989) Directed by Bob Bralver An 80s slasher movie that somehow I was unaware of until just this year?\u00a0 Idk how that even
