Hell Night

Summary: Hell Night is a 1981 American slasher film directed by Tom DeSimone, written by Randy Feldman, and starring Linda Blair. The film depicts a night of fraternity hazing (hell night) set in an old manor, during which a deformed maniac terrorizes and murders many of the college students. The film also blends elements of slasher films and haunted house-themed films. While reception is generally mixed to negative, the film has developed a large cult following since its release. Future film director Chuck Russell (A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors, The Blob, The Mask) served as an executive producer, while his long-time collaborator Frank Darabont served as a production assistant. The film was nominated for a Razzie for Worst Actress for Blair. Hell Night was also the final film released by Compass International Pictures.
