Evil Laugh [Blu-ray]

Co-written by and starring Steven Baio (brother of Happy Days legend Scott Baio), Evil Laugh is a rarely seen splatter-fest that arrived right at the end of the slasher boom. Thanks to a tight script, this film ensured the horror sub-genre went out on a gory high. A group of Med students decides to renovate an old foster home where, 10 years prior, an unspeakable crime occurred, haunting the local community ever since. As the students work, a silent, masked murderer rewards their good deeds with swift, violent death. This mid-80s horror picture features everything expected from the era, including a touch of self-awareness, an eccentric score, bizarre and inventive deaths (including a notable microwave incident), and even dance routines.
