Storyline

High school student Paula Carson's affections are being sought after by two of her classmates: Dwight, the "bad boy", and Brian, a disturbed young man who has just been released from a mental hospital where he was committed following the suspicious death of his father. Soon after being released, more murders start happening. Is Brian back to his old tricks, or is Dwight just trying to eliminate the competition? Written by Jean-Marc Rocher <rocher@fiberbit.net>

Mr. Dante: [over p.a.] I just want to thank the student who drew the crude caricature of me in the boys' lavatory, Although you were kind in your portrayal, I would like it if you kept your talents to the art class.
