Skip Schoolnik is the director behind the 80's slasher Hide and Go Shriek. Hide and Go Shriek is one of those films that featured some up and coming talent along with some actors that dropped off the face of the earth. The cast included Bunky Jones, Brittain Frye (Slumber Party Massacre III), Sean Kanan (The Karate Kid Part III), Ria Pavia (Candyman), Annette Sinclair, Donna Baltron (Shallow Grave 1987), Scott Fults, and George Thomas. Hide and Go Shriek deals with a group of teenagers who sneak into a furniture store to have an after hours graduation party unaware that a killer has followed them and is picking people off one by one as they play a game of hide and seek. Here is what Skip had to say about making his first film, Hide and Go Shriek.

I'm all about doing great work.
