A second rate B-horror film, _New Year’s Evil_ has an interesting concept but goes about it rather poorly. The story follows a killer who calls into a punk rock television show on New Year’s Eve promising to kill someone every time New Year’s hits a new time zone across the country. It’s a rather frightful idea and the kill scenes are pretty intense. But it’s all undercut by the terrible performances, which are dreadfully awful. Additionally, the “punk” music is just a bunch of generic tripe (with the exception of the title song). While it has a good gimmick going for it, _New Year’s Evil_ is full of problems that drag the film down.

>–*"I always come well equipped."* –*"I’ll bet you do..."* Has it's moments but I was mostly bored. This movie looks and sounds like a party, there's always music playing and people partying. Not many kills or gore, bland characters and lacks thrills and fun. The elevator scene was the best. The killer was kinda cool in the third act and great ending.
