On the eve of her graduation dance, Rosemary and her date are butchered by an unidentified prowler. While thought to be a disturbed former-soldier, the exact killer was never found. Decades later, and the town of Avalon Bay are holding their first graduation dance since the horrific murders of years earlier - but something else may have returned. Someone dressed in a military uniform is killing attendees in the exact same way. Featuring the razor-sharp direction of Joseph Zito (Friday the 13th: The Final Chapter) and strong performances by Hollywood legends Farley Granger (Alfred Hitchcock's Strangers on a Train) and Lawrence Tierney (Reservoir Dogs), this masterwork of stylish gore is one of the most beloved cult slasher films of the 1980's. However it is the groundbreaking special effects created by renowned makeup artist Tom Savini (Dawn of the Dead, Night of the Living Dead, From Dusk till Dawn) that truly make this a defining work of the genre.
