Where to Watch Bloody Birthday
- ZokkiieJuly 20, 2026Can't say this is a great movie, but it's still a pretty fun and enjoyable little slasher. The whole idea of three children being the killers is a pretty unique concept, and the movie gets some good mileage out of how strange and ridiculous the setup is. The kills are solid enough, and it has that cheesy early 80s horror feel that makes it easy to sit through. The movie does have plenty of flaws though. The story is pretty basic, the characters aren't very memorable, and it doesn't do a whole lot beyond its main idea. It could have been a lot more creative with the concept, but it's still a decent time if you're into old-school slashers. Not a classic, but definitely more entertaining than it probably should be.
