Hailed by critics as one of the greatest horror movies of all time and now fully UNCUT and UNCENSORED
Teenagers Mari and Phyllis stop off before heading to a concert in the city to score some grass when they are accosted by a group of thugsled by the reprehensible and deeply psychotic Krug. While Mari’s parents are just a mile away preparing a party for theirdaughter, the two girls are subjected to the most terrifying ordeal imaginable. With his male and female cohorts, the monstrous Krugdelivers a grueling catalogue of assault and depravity on the two girls that stretches the bounds of on-screen horror to its verylimits.
Only after the girls’ suffering is ended does the enormity of their actions dawn upon the villainous gang. But for them the nightmare isjust beginning: the house they happen upon to spend the night is one from which they may never leave alive.
