The few remaining residents of a Canadian sorority house are celebrating the onset of
Christmas vacation when a thirteen year-old girl is found dead in the park. Soon, it is
discovered that one of the sorority sisters is missing, which triggers a terrifying chain of
murders within the house. Director Bob Clark's ('Porky's', 'A Christmas Story') tense, effective
film is a precursor to the slasher films that would come a half decade later, but never relies on
gore. Olivia Hussy ('Romeo and Juliet') stars alongside Margot Kidder and SCTV's Andrea
Martin.
