Product Description
A host of familiar genre faces including Hal Holbrook (Creepshow), Rutanya Alda (Amityville II: The Possession), Julia Montgomery (The Kindred) and Lauren-Marie Taylor (Friday the 13th Part 2) rounds out the cast of this gloriously mean-spirited slice from the slasher golden age, Girls Nite Out!
The students of DeWitt University are preparing themselves for a night of fun and frolics in the form of an all-night scavenger hunt. Little do they know that they are in fact the ones being hunted… An unhinged assailant, disguised in the college’s goofy bear mascot outfit – and bearing knives for claws, two years before Freddy donned his famous gloves – is stalking the campus hellbent on carving up co-eds.
Originally released under the only marginally more appropriate title of The Scaremaker, Girls Nite Out is a decidedly singular slasher flick which comes on like a frenetic cross between Animal House and Friday the 13th – veering from jovial frat antics to jarringly disturbing scenes of the killer shrieking obscenities as he slices up his victims. On this nite out, no one is coming home!

- Reviewed in the United States on September 9, 2024great 80s horror done right and classic fun for fans
- Reviewed in the United States on February 23, 2015A cult classic worthy of re-discovery. Girls Nite Out is a movie that gets a lot of hate, truthfully I don't understand why. The movie offers up fun, comedy, and even atmosphere. In fact the movie relies more on atmosphere and mood more than gore. Most of the teen characters are wacky and of-the-wall, yet likeable. Although the real stars of the film are Hal Holbrook as Mac and the killer. The film has a small cult following, and really deserves a second chance. Now I'm not saying this is the greatest movie of all time, far from it. However I think it's a terrific slasher film.
Plot: A college is holding its yearly scavenger hunt, only to be interrupted by a merciless killer.
My Thoughts: I love the the killer's disguise, it was pure genius. The killer wears the school mascot costume-a bear- and places steak knives in one of the paws. The weapon is similar to Freddy's glove, however this came out first-1982. The bear suit is goofy but that just increases the creepiness of the film, especially when the kill talks profanely.The acting is pretty good and the gore that is on screen is pretty good as well. I found the pacing to be decent and the story interesting. Hal Holbrook is as awesome as always. The film's soundtrack is cool, consisting of golden oldies hits from Lovin' Spoonful, Tommy James & the Shondells, Ohio Express, and several others. The film's score is exceptionally eerie and haunting. Overall I recommend this film to slasher fans and horror fans.

- Reviewed in the United States on May 3, 2014This film has some creativity with the design of the killer. The psycho wears a bear mascot costume with Freddy Krueger style knives for one of its paws, which makes this different to an extent from other 80s slashers. The psycho with the costume, claw, and creepy voice is well designed. I also thought the film was decently directed, and acting was better than some other low-budget retro slashers. A lot of the film takes place at night, and the overall quality of the atmosphere is OK because of the darkness and locations. It's decently scored with some suspense, and I thought the movie was well done overall. However, it does have some things that may be a problem with some. First, it's a slasher with no nudity; this isn't the norm with 80s slashers. It also does contain some unnecessary filler in some places. There's some dialogue sequences and other scenes that I thought pad the running time and simply slow down the pace, and I thought it would've been a little better if more of the film took place outdoors. As for the gore, there's one bloody scene with blood spilling down a girl when the bear killer gets her. Aside from that scene, there's some blood; but the overall gore content is low. The body count isn't high, but it's OK; if you're looking for a high body count slasher with a really fast pace from beginning to end, lots of gore, sex and nudity, I wouldn't recommend it. The film also has a silly comedic farting sequence with a guy in bed with Julia Montgomery that was tossed in. This isn't among the best of the 80s slashers, but fans of 80s slashers and those who aren't looking for a slasher that's overly intense and gory may find interest it. The films main problem is some of that unnecessary filler that may bore some people. In my opinion, this type of slasher movie would've been better with more gore, a faster pace, and nudity; nevertheless, it has a nice 80s charm to it.
The DVD quality is really good. It has a nice and lively interview with Julia Montgomery that I thought was good. She talks about the film, as well as mentioning her role in REVENGE OF THE NERDS. You also get a quick extra that shows the original title, and there's the original trailer.
- Reviewed in the United States on May 6, 2013Girls Nite Out is a great movie for the slasher movie fan or fan of horror in general. The plot is a killer, wearing a dancing bear suit, stalks a variety of cheerleaders during an all-night scavenger hunt at a remote Ohio college. It is one of those guess who the killer is slasher movies that makes the movie so fun. Hal Holbrook is in the movie helping the film in the acting department. Lauren Marie Taylor from Friday the 13th Part 2 is also a nice addition to the movie. I wish she did more horror movies. This movie was exciting as it went at a good pace and delivered some scares. There was a lot of suspense and its hard to guess who the killer is as the movie effectively keeps you on your toes. I thought it was cool the killer dressed in a bearsuit. It was creepy. The ending was really awesome. As a slasher movie fan this was a real surprise. Having seen a lot of known and lesser known slashers I gave this one a try and thought it was unique and better than a lot of some of the other slashers I've seen. It's not on par with Halloween or Friday the 13th but it was a lot of fun. I will definitely be watching this movie many times in the future. Cheers

- Reviewed in the United States on May 7, 2016Not the best but certainly to the worst slasher film i have seen. In a weird way i kinda like it. Its nt very gory and by todays standards it could be a made for tv movie but its silly and fun and very 80s, slasher.
- Reviewed in the United States on September 25, 2014Wow I was surprised how good this movie was ,kept me guessing and it was just fun campy horror that I enjoy! Reminds me of late night movies back in the 80s .

1.0 out of 5 stars Fallt bloß nicht auf das Cover rein...
Den positiven (und ja, es gibt eigentlich nur einen) Punkt gleich als erstes:
Das Cover sieht wirklich nett aus und verspricht Spaß.
Sobald "Girls nite out" dann allerdings läuft muss man den Filmspaß mit der Lupe suchen-
ausser man hat Kumpels neben sich sitzen, genug Knabberkram und die richtige Laune über Trash abzulästern.
Die Darsteller sind durchgehend alle absolut talentfreie Katastrophen,
selbst Hal Holbrook als einzig bekanntes Gesicht wirkt hier wie auf Valium.
Die Synchro samt unpassendsten Sprechern gehört zum schlechtesten was ich jemals gehört habe,
und der Horror-oder Blutgehalt ist gefährlich nahe an der Null. Das Ding ist laut Cover ab 18. Warum?????

3.0 out of 5 stars OK slasher
Basic story..Students hold an all night scavenger hunt, but their fun and games are interrupted by a killer on the prowl. The lunatic takes the disguise of the school mascot (a teddy bear!) and begins killing the coeds one by one. The campus security guard (Hal Holbrook) attempts to find the killer.
I watched this again recently and while it's no way up there among the best slashers it's still not bad. Although not too high in the gore stakes there's still some blood during the deaths, but it's a mostly enjoyable watch. There is OK shocks and suspense during the creepy phone calls and stalking scenes so the direction has its moments. There's a mystery surrounding the killer and are enough decent moments to keep you entertained until the good ending. It's no classic slasher but is still a fun watch and I'm sure most 80's slasher fans will enjoy.

4.0 out of 5 stars If There’s Such A Thing As A Happy Slasher Film…
…then this would probably be it. The characters are amusing and fun to watch, so when the killing comes around it’s a bit harsh. Good soundtrack, fun atmosphere, and a pretty good twist at the end that leaves the blood a bit frozen.

2.0 out of 5 stars Oha...
"Girls Nite Out" ist wohl einer der schlechteren Filme seiner Art. Das einzig Sehenswerte sind die kurzen Auftritte von Hal Holbrook. Sonst gibt es überdrehte Charakter und eine langweilige Story.
Bild (16:9) und Ton sind in mittelmäßiger VHS-Qualität, das Bild ist an manchen Stellen etwas ruckig.
Ehemals entfernte Szenen wurden wieder eingefügt (Super!), wer aber dem englischen nicht mächtig ist, könnte seine Probleme haben, da es keinen Untertitel gibt.
