Storyline

Hanging out at some campgrounds one nice summer day, 19-year-old Ray Pye decides to murder two young women. His friends, Jen and Tim, witness the murder and help him cover it up. Four years later, Ray has never been arrested for the crime. Detective Charlie Schilling and his ex-partner, Ed Anderson, know that Ray did it. They just could never prove it. Charlie figures it's about time they did prove it. He's ready to push Ray harder than ever. Meanwhile, Ray has met his match in a new girl in town, Katherine Wallace. Kath is a bad girl; she and Ray are a potentially explosive combination. Throw in the fact that Ed is having a summer fling with Sally Richmond - a girl young enough to be his daughter. And Sally's just gotten a job at the motel that Ray manages. Ray has his eye on her. Charlie and Ed never found the gun that Ray used to murder the women at the campground.

User Reviews

Slow, but good acting.

I caught this at the NY horror film festival. Its got some great scenes, and a pretty intense ending, but moves really slow at times. The lead actors are amazing, and so is a lot of the dialogue. But, unfortunately, some scenes drag on forever, and really weigh down this film. i'd love to see them take this back into the editing room and do a little work, because I think there is an amazing film buried inside this fairly mediocre one.

The film does feature a really good cameo by Misty Munday in the opening scene. She's very good, although the real star of this movie is the guy that plays the lead character, Ray Pei. But the film also has a lot of awkward scenes involving a cop character as well, that don't always fit in. (Like a scene where he pointlessly farts in a chair)
