Plot:
A young couple decides to look up an old friend while vacationing in the woods of Northern California. While camping out, two strangers appear and briefly talk with the couple before leaving. Later that evening, the two strangers return to terrorize the young couple by subduing the man and brutally assaulting the woman. What other fiendish plans does the pair have in store for the innocent couple?

Review:
Maybe not as exciting as the plot outline that I took from the cover sleeve of the DVD. Robert Englund is in the movie for about 10 minutes at the end of the movie.

It really isn't that bad of a movie, but the beginning of the movie is much, much better than the 2nd part. The beginning is hilarious, very easy to make fun of.. and then it starts to drag a little.
The movie is very short, only about 76 minutes, but it could probably be about 30. :) The "terrorizing" scene lasts all of 2 minutes, nothing at all like I Spit on Your Grave.

Watch it if you have the chance, but not really anything to go out of your way for. Not really funny or scary or bloody or gory.. but some parts are amusing. :)

The music is hilarious, though! Pay attention to the lyrics. Some of the "traveling" music will bring back wonderful memories of Italian cannibal movies.
