Sorority girls fool around a crypt ONE DARK NIGHT and end up being terrorized by a psychic corpse that raises the dead!
Though dated and a bit too sluggish for its own good One Dark Night manages to be an entertaining enough effort to warrant a view from 80's horror fans. The story has a bit of creativeness on its side, going with a supernatural theme instead of going the slasher route as so many teen horror films of this era did. It's also not nearly as gory as the typical 80's horror. There's some moments of nice dark atmosphere, some OK special effects, and the always enjoyable Meg Tilly as our heroine girl in distress. Adding even more to the camp value here is the presence of Adam West, who has a small role.
Over all, One Dark Night isn't bad. While it's no lost classic, it's an interesting little teen horror flick that devoted retro horror fans may find worth a watch.
** 1/2 out of ****
