This film has all the requisite ingredients for a ripping slasher yarn: a car filled with hapless teens, a storm, a ramshackle mansion, and a strange hitchiker, and horribly disfigured killers. The nightmare begins when the violent storm erupts and the teen in charge of showing the others the way to an isolated New York lake admits that they are lost. They then pick up the hitcher. As the sun goes down, they decide to seek shelter in the abandoned mansion. There they see a shrine built around a wrecked auto. As they break into the house, the rambunctious youths are unaware of the evil presence within. Before the night is through much blood will flow, and only one will survive. Like many films of this genre, graphic violence and gore abounds as does nudity and simulated sex.
