Игра в прятки (1988)

"Igra v pryatki" (Hide and Seek) is a unique horror movie that was released in 1988 in the United States, under the original title "Hide and Go Shriek." Directed by Skip Schoolnik, the film features a group of teenagers who decide to spend the night in a furniture store but soon find themselves being hunted down by a killer. What sets "Igra v pryatki" apart from other horror films of its time is its setting. The film takes place entirely within the furniture store, which provides a creepy and claustrophobic atmosphere that intensifies the tension and terror. The killer, dressed in a creepy clown costume, adds to the eerie ambiance of the film. The film's pacing is also noteworthy. While some horror films rely on gore and jump scares, "Igra v pryatki" builds up the tension slowly, with subtle hints that something is not quite right in the furniture store. This creates a sense of dread that lingers throughout the film, making it a genuinely chilling experience. Overall, "Igra v pryatki" (Hide and Seek) is a unique and effective horror film that stands out from other productions of its era. Its reliance on atmosphere and tension over gore and jump scares makes it an excellent example of the psychological horror genre.
