Initially this appears to be the usual slasher formula of high schoolers sneaking into a furniture store to party throughout the night. Someone else is in the store killing the kids one by one. I won't give anything else away. There is a red herring, but this film is notable for giving a plot twist as we discover who the killer is and why they are doing what they are doing. All things considered I really enjoyed this film. It doesn't get remembered as much when 80's slashers are discussed. If you love horror films, go see this.
Hide and go shriek is an 80s slasher about some teen's having a sleepover in a furinture store.
I love the furniture store setting, i wish there were more horror movies set there.
The kills are good. And the acting is good.
There is some flawes as that it doesn't seem like they care about their friends dying, or how stupid the characters are, but that's a problem in most slashers.
So overall a suprisingly good slasher and i recommend watching it.

I really liked Hide and Go Shriek... It was very entertaining and scary! See it if you are a horror fan! Slasher films around the late 80's were cheesy anyway...but this one stands out. The only thing that was weird was the killer...
Kids sneak into the furniture store one of their parents owns and are targeted by a killer who likes to play dress up after killing their victims. There's enough camp here with the kid's fashions and bad hairstyles if that's what you watch 80's slasher films for and the killer's monologue and reveal has to be one of the most bizarre you're likely to see in a film like this. There's a really nasty decapitation scene, too, which did boggle my mind when I first saw it. I'm still not sure how they did that.
This movie has it's good moments... It has scary scenes, scary music, gore, original killings, and an original killer.
Give this movie a try. If you feel scared during the movie, I bet that at the end of it you'll feel like an idiot because the killer is VERY... Ok, you'll have to find it out heh heh.
