After an "accidental death" set-up much similar to the same year's Prom Night this flashes forward and introduces another cliched premise as some college girls staying behind for Christmas vacations are stalked and killed by a psychopath after they've drugged-up their housemother and invited some boys over.

If the plot description didn't clue you off on just how by-the-book this slasher flick is then you'll be thrilled to know there's also the pre-requiste slow-minded handyman who warns everyone of "evil". This isn't to say this is a bad movie; it's just there.

There's a high body count, a few dull stretches and a predictable killer indentity with debuting director Hess (who's acted in a bunch of horror films himself as a killer) having lots of fun using shadows. There's a minor twist ending that's okay but this is mostly pretty standard stuff.
