In spite of featuring some of the most inspired effects of Tom Savini's career and a great premise, The Prowler goes too big too soon and leaves it with nowhere to go until the finale of the film. After the first 30 minutes, there's nothing to look forward to but the next death scene and you find yourself not even caring who the killer is. Joseph Zito directs the stalk/kill scenes with conviction and gets good performances out of his cast, but the script starts and stops to often to build any momentum.
