Trivia
This movie was banned in the United Kingdom in the early 1980's after it was labeled a "Video Nasty."

Quotes
Manuela: No, Miguel. I'm your sister. We shouldn't start again. Don't you see that people wouldn't let us love each other. It's that... don't you see... it's everybody that's around us, staring at us and judging us.
[gasps]
Manuela: I'm so afraid. Miguel, I'm terribly frightened. If we could just get rid of everyone around us. Then things could be as they were.

Alternate versions
Dutch DVD is cut and at the gore scenes the picture goes from light to dark. The last available German censored master was used.

Connections
Featured in Matador (1986)

The movie is pretty average for a slasher movie goes. The story is nothing too interesting with a unknown killer killing current characters at a Boarding School. Just like many slasher movies in the 80's, the movie is easily predictable and there's a lot of cliches in it. Also scenes that isn't the death scenes aren't that interesting or dragged on a little bit too long. The movie have a couple of cheap and fake out scares throughout. And the killer revealed is way too obvious and the motive isn't good.

One positive I can give is that the kill scenes have nice tension to them and the music gives off a eerie vibe to the scenes itself. And the climax is pretty suspenseful even though it happened near the end of the movie.
