A slick attempt at a slasher with very impressive night photography.
Madman Marz, the film's killer, is a local legend made flesh who kills a bunch of wimpy teens and their counselors.
Joe Giannone's direction of the suspense sequences and ground level camerawork is a cut above. The storyline is serviceable but predictable. The acting ain't worth more than a line.
But do check out the film's night photography. Usually I hate night scenes because they're so poorly illuminated. Not so here. Some very stylish set-ups and artful compositions.
Memorable, thumpy score, too.
