Synopsis by Tracie Cooper
Jeanette's (Valerie Niehaus) survival of a brutal serial killer's attack is bittersweet--granted, she escaped with her own life, but her parents were not so lucky. Traumatized, Jeanette spends most of her adolescence in a mental institution. Once released, she finds a job tutoring a group of priviledged teens, and thinks she may be ready to begin a relatively normal life. To her horror, however, it isn't long before people start getting murdered at an alarming rate, and Jeanette begins to suspect that the person who couldn't kill her years ago has returned in hopes of correcting the oversight. Directed by Michael Karen, Flashback also features Xaver Hutter, and Elke Sommer.
