When Jeff East is stabbed several times when he's in the car, there's no blood on the knife. This ending may have achieved the highest score recorded on an Oh-fuck-off-o-meter in human history.

Early thriller from Wes Craven is a truly twisted tale of rural horror. A previous Hittite ,a member of an Amish-like sect, dies and his widow is left to confront the rigid Hittites who view her as "the incubus" and may have dark projects on her. I found this film to have a great ambiance and artsy vibe, the location elevated the film and the death scenes were similar to those of Dario Argento .. (suspiria). A former Hittite (a member of an Amish-like sect) dies in a mysterious tractor "accident", and his widow is left to face the frightening Hittites who view her as "the incubus" and may have sinister designs on her. In lieu of that incendiary topic, Deadly Blessing is mostly tethered to an overblown slasher film.

Soon two of her friends Vicky and Lana come to comfort her and hopefully bring her back with them, but she prefers to stay. But unlike that subsequent film, this is (for the most part) a much more down-to-Earth sort of horror-thriller, with a mysterious figure running around stabbing people to death in a way that almost feels reminiscent of the first Friday the 13th. I personally consider it Craven's best film aside from The Hills Have Eyes. When Susan Buckner's car is dosed with gasoline, she tries to drive away only to die when the car blows up.

It also features some truly atrocious acting (Sharon Stone) and an ending so cretinously stupid that you want to find Wes Craven and whack him over the head with an oar. It feels more like it evolved in parallel to the slashers instead of belonging to them, making an odd rural American giallo rather than the whackadoo Amish-themed Friday the 13th knock-off it acts like. Inane dialogue, like when Jensen says defiantly "You want me to run because you can't find the killer!" Academy Award-winner Ernest Borgnine was nominated for a Razzie award for "Worst Supporting Actor" for this movie.
