I do like watching slasher movies, and oddly enough then I never gotten around to watching the "Slumber Party Massacre" trilogy. So I thought I would get acquainted with the movies, and thus I sat down to start watching the trilogy.I just only made it through the first movie in the series. And after what I witnessed here in this 1982 movie was enough to deter me from not wanting to sit down and watching the sequels.The storyline in "Slumber Party Massacre" seemed to be little more than just random events filmed without a proper red line connecting them, and then the editor was just given all this raw footage and given the task to make a movie out of it. And that was not a successful way of constructing a movie.The writer Rita Mae Brown did not manage to come up with a proper storyline, and that was quite clear throughout the course of these random events shot on film.As for the characters, well let's just say that they were generic, even as slasher movie characters go. Some of the things that these characters did just made absolutely no sense, especially if faced with the mortal danger of a deranged slasher on the prowl.And while we are on the topic of the slasher, then it was a very non-threatening killer that made his rounds in this movie. And even so, the slasher wasn't particularly memorable, especially in comparison to slashers such as Jason, Freddy, Myers, etc.I will say that some of the kills were adequate, although the effects were shoddy and questionable at best. But then again, some of the kills were just downright laughable.All in all, "Slumber Party Massacre" turned out to be a less than mediocre slasher movie, and one that I will not return to watch again, and nor will I attempt at watching parts 2 and 3.

After the training of the high school girls' basketball team, a group of players schedule a slumber party. Most of the girls agrees to go to the party. Meanwhile, the serial-killer Russ Thorn (Michael Villela) escapes from prison and comes to the school with a drilling machine in the beginning of his crime spree. "The Slumber Party Massacre" is a weak slasher, since the killer's identity is known from the beginning and the story is not original. In 1979, Abel Ferrara directed "The Driller Killer", where a serial-killer kills his victims with a driller. There are hot girls nude, but they do not save the movie since the story is lame. My vote is four.Title (Brazil): Not available on DVD or Blu-Ray

Slumber Party Massacre will never stand out in the slasher genre the way My Bloody Valentine, Friday the 13th, Prom Night, Happy Birthday to Me, Black Christmas and Sleepaway Camp have. Still, it manages to be entertaining enough, although the killer is easily predictable.A group of basketball players decide to have a slumber party, but make snobby remarks about the new girl on the team and she refuses to go to their party. Little do the girls know that a killer with a thing for drills is out there...The soundtrack was terrible, just the same repetitive organ music played at the murders. However, the acting was decent enough. If you want a cheesy slasher film to pass the time, check this one out.

An eighteen-year-old high school girl is left at home by her parents and she decides to have a slumber party. There is friction between some of the guests and the new girl, who is better at basketball than they, so the new girl decides to stay at home. Meanwhile, a murderer with a propensity for power tools has escaped and is at large, and eventually makes his way to the party, where the guests begin experiencing an attrition problem, with only the new girl to help them.......So when the slasher genre was at its high during the early eighties, there were some rife ones released to earn a few bucks, and this was one of the biggest stinkers.It just consists of a man walking around and just happening to be in the right place and the right time to murder a high school student.The film makers must have been having a whale of a time, because the first act consists of the camera focusing on parts of a woman, and nothing else.The second act is none existent, and the third act really just consists of actors running out of select doors screaming and stabbing the killer with various objects.The film is awful, with really bad acting and a silly ending.
