One of the best slasher films period.
Excellent "eyes of the killer"/suspense scenes.

Day one!

Can never say no to any slasher flick on 4K.

Is this the same one that has 13% and 16% on RottenTomatoes?

Yeah, this isn't very good.

I'm happy for the fans that will be getting it on 4K, though.

Dark Force be bringin dem low budget horror slasher flicks to 4K... Stay jealous, HATERS!!

guccipunkstar · 09-03-2022, 09:09 PM

A personal favorite of mine, it’s a fun hangout slasher !! The blu ray is rough so I hope they can clean this one up nice

Matt89 · 09-03-2022, 09:16 PM

Lol Final Exam is such a mediocre slasher film but for some reason I have a soft spot for it.

Will definitely be picking this up.

I'm good with the blu on this one.lol

I’m not a fan of Dead Pit and I’m not sold on Scream, but I think I’m gonna bite on this one (assuming the technical merits are up to snuff).

People always say this and I just can’t disagree more. Is Final Exam first tier? Of course not. But once you’ve gotten through the top 30-50 slasher films, Final Exam is right there. A solid, fun film.

It’s not like we’re talking Terror at Tenkiller here or something.

Halloween boy is back! He's On the right side of the coin this time.... We're all happy this movie touches your soft as silk inners in the way only a low budget slasher horror movie can!

Yes, please.

It’s great to see another label getting fully in the 4k game and throwing down on more early-80’s horror. Hopefully they spring for a quality audio remaster and a top-shelf encode on these new 4k scans. Looking forward to more 4k slasher announcements on similar titles like Graduation Day, Night School, Slumber Party Massacre, Silent Scream, The Mutilator etc. There’s a ton of great slasher material for hardcore fans of the genre that is deserving of the 4k treatment.

First comment on that FB page:

"...just cannot subscribe to the 4K thing...most, if not all of the films offered by the fine folks at Code Red/Dark Force, are meant to be seen in the degraded and unmolested form by which they were originally seen....and I have acquired almost all of them, over the years. Really...what's the quality of 4K gonna do with these films, really?? These films are not supposed to be so 'polished'."

I have no words for the stupidity displayed on social media.

This person must believe theaters were projecting VHS tapes in 1981.

I don't know, never use that BS site.

It has 4 1/2 stars on Amazon with nearly 300 ratings.
