Marie is struggling with much deeper feelings than friendship for Alex. Arriving late, the family retires to their bedroom. Marie stays up, listening to music and expressing her feelings for Alex in a physical way – alone in her bedroom. A sadistic killer pulls up to the secluded farm house.

When Alex’s father answers the door, he is savagely, and I mean SAVAGELY, murdered. Hearing the commotion, Marie manages to conceal her presence from the killer, hiding in the attic. Alex is attacked, and left bound and gagged as the killing continues. One by one the family is brutally slaughtered, until only Alex and Marie are left. Marie tries to free Alex, but is unable to unlock the heavy chains which imprison her.

The killer leaves with Alex, unaware that there Marie was in the house, and still alive. Marie gives chase to save her friend and is forced into a shocking confrontation with the killer.
