"Next Of Kin" has become something of a minor cult classic and deservedly so. This has to be one of the few horror films that I have actually found freaky.
Others being "An American Werewolf In London", "Friday The 13th" and "The Thing".
I feel I shouldn't give too much away, but I can tell you this; Tarantino is a huge fan of John Jarratt, and in particular, a huge fan of this movie.
In short, this has gone under the radar a bit and must be seen. Horror as it should be.
