    Cliches All In

    Berserker fulfills every obligatory cliche of an 80s slasher: some kids having fun in the woods, some naked boobs, some blood running, on top we get epic haircut 80s style and easy to the ears rock music tunes. Berserker is in my humble opinion not that bad but nothing really exciting or remarkable. Anyway, if you are heavy invested in the backwoods slashing business you may dare to give this one a try.
