Warning: Spoilers
*SPOILER ALERT* *SPOILER ALERT*

A woman gets a job tutoring French to three rich brats for the summer. She's a hottie who just got released from the insane asylum. Her doctor thinks this job will be good for her. Some fresh air, some rowdy German teens talking in terrible dubbed English, and a mad killer stalking the house. She has flashbacks to her parents murder and wonders if the killer could be coming for her. The viewer has flashbacks to every single slasher flick he's seen.

"Flashback" has one good thing going for it: BLOOD. Lots of blood. They don't skimp on the red stuff. No one is safe. Other than the blood, it's lacking. The plot is lame. The acting is fair but since all the teens are selfish ingrates, you don't care whether they get butchered or not. The whole movie had a goofy vibe. Nothing scary here.

So if you like blood in your slasher flick and you're not too picky, you might like it. It was OK.
