Storyline

For five adventurous friends, visiting the legendary murder site of the Redwood House has all the hallmarks of being an exciting and thrilling camping weekend away. A popular site for revellers and party goers, each year on the exact date of the famous local family massacre, people from around the country head out to the site to have fun and scare each other. Events take a bloody turn for the worse when the innocent campers discover the Redwood legend is in fact a horrible bloody reality, which turns the unsuspecting victims into prey for a mysterious axe wielding maniac that has remained dormant for 20 years.

Goofs

At the beginning of the movie, minute 4:56, Jessica (Rebecca Wilkie) walks into the wood with Pamela. At minute 5:55, at the same place and situation, she looks notoriously skinnier and her make up is a lot different than the previous scene (another eyebrow design, false eyelashes, almost clownish).

User Reviews

Ending killed the movie it just dragged on

This movie certainly isn't the worst you'll see in the horror genre. Poor opening titles doesn't set the movie up well but it does have it moments. The special effects are way over the top but in alot of instants its done well. It is pretty much an all out gore fest and doesn't really have much plot to it. My main gripe with movie was just how long the ending dragged on for, this realy killed the movie.
