Review
"Bloody Moon is the legendary cult director Jess Franco's take on the slasher genre, but as always with Franco he is not out to do something generic just to make a quick buck. The atmosphere of the film and the style it is shot in might not be the best of Franco, but it sure makes the film stand out from the rest of the early 80's slasher films. The murders are set up nicely, delivering enough blood and guts to keep slasher fans happy. There's also plenty of nudity, but what fans of slasher films will miss is the intense tone and the lack of attempts at making the film have any scary parts." - Greg Baty, Cinesploitation
