Review by jangu

I saw this move when I was 15 yo and found it rather atmospheric and creepy. The main actors are good, Jessica Harper and Michael Parks especially, but there are a few amateurish performances as well. The flashbacks to the murders of the past were nicely done too, they are quite tense and suspenseful actually, and the main characters in this flick behave in a manner that I at least found plausible. It's not a "no-holds-barred" terror movie or some "Friday the 13th"-clone, just a handsomely put together, semi-independent movie. Nice cinematography also and beautiful locations. However, the claim that this is a true story, is ridiculous and, considering the ending, not something even the filmmakers believe in.
