The Aussies have made their fair share of horror films, but only a precious handful of them are well remembered or regarded. Next of Kin is one of the better and more atmospheric of their early 80's horror offerings by taking the little used nursing home location and mining it for maximum chills.
In the film, Linda, a young woman who returns home after her mother's death to discover that she's inherited the creepy nursing home her mother had operated. Upon finding her mother's diary, she discovers that her mother was paranoid about someone wanting to kill her and this person might still be lurking around the premises.
It's a slow burner and one that's sure to tick off those wanting more of a fast-paced slasher type movie, but the wild finale is more than worth the wait.
