    • Trivia
      Despite receiving top billing on the DVD releases of this film, cult hero Bruce Campbell only makes a brief appearance in the film as a policeman at the end.
    • Goofs
      Even though the story takes place during the course of one night, the TV GUIDE Magazines at the checkout stands change periodically. The movie was filming in a real grocery store after hours and TV GUIDE is a weekly publication - this helps chronicle the numerous weeks involved in filming.
    • Quotes

      Bill Roberts: Here comes fucking Parker, walking down nine miles, swinging the God damn head by the hair in one hand and his sandwich in the other.

    • Alternate versions
      There is an unrated director's cut available which features the infamous "bandsaw lobotomy" where a character's head is inserted into a high powered meat slicer.

    "Cereal" Killer Supermarket
    From the makers of The Evil Dead we got a slasher flick that for some reason is kind of a hidden gem. Not many people have seen this movie. I personally bought an Uncut version off a grey market site for 5 bucks. I should add that it was worth it.

    Story takes place in a supermarket which seems to only sell cereal...not really, but they like to shoot scenes down that isle. The workers are closing for the night and they just want to finish up and head home. Well that's a shame since there's a killer in the store and the workers start dropping like flies. That's pretty much how the story goes.

    But the movie itself was done pretty damn well. You have a cast that was definitely into this movie. They tried to seriously pull it off. There's some dark humor, some great lighting effects and some really good gore effects. I unfortunately was a little disappointed in the amount of gore. I kept on hearing there was tons of it....there's really not that much. But there is enough to keep an average gore fan happy. The movie unfortunately was not scary, but don't dismay, the movie has a special charm, that will most likely keep you (horror fan) happy.

    Bruce Campbell is in the movie for a total of about 2 minutes, so even though it says his name on the cover...don't buy/rent it because of him. Intruder is a pretty fun flick to watch. It definitely has more positives than negatives and is better than most slashers. If you're into slasher films, this is definitely one you should add to your collection.
