An excellent remake of the 70's original
Nell and Steven Burrows move to Los Angeles to start a new life together. When they move into the Lusman Building, a historic run down Hollywood apartment complex, they soon find themselves caught into a web of terrifying evil as a ruthless killer lurks inside. Somehow moving unseen from apartment to apartment the killer uses drills, claw hammers and saws to murder his victims. 'Toolbox Murders' is Tobe Hooper's remake of his own 1979 original, and while the original was an out and out slasher flick, this remake is slightly tamer, with more suspense and a supernatural twist replacing the gore and violence of the original. Hooper also has cleverly added several red herrings throughout the film which keeps you guessing to the killer's identity. Overall 'The Toolbox Murders' is pretty impressive with good some scares, gory deaths and a suspenseful plot.
