Five women on vacation in Sunnyville, FL are stalked by a hooded cannibal killer recently escaped from a mental institution. A gory, seminal Super-8 epic from Tim Ritter.

At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.

One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

Obviously this movie will be very hard to find, but it is a great example of what can be done with no budget. The story was ahead of it's time with it's tale of battling psychopaths. Excellent fun is to be found in this rare video.While the acting might be a little stiff, you have to give credit to the amateur actors. Many people make movies while in high school, but Tim Ritter was able to get his work seen by the "right" people and move on to making "real" movies. This is the movie that helped Tim to get noticed, while not having the distribution of his later works, this movie is one that is worth tracking down.I think this movie is better then "Truth of Dare – Critical Madness". Fans of Tim Ritter movies would really love to see this early example of his work.
