Résumé (jaquette) : Four young campers, Craig, Peter, Ingrid and Joanne, back-pack through the mountains for a relaxing weekend in the wilderness.
They enter a forest which becomes denser and darker as the progress. Peter (Nick McClelland) and Ingrid (Mary Galeartz) fear they are lost. The bush moves and something is there. Suddenly a large form rushes forward. A wide machete gleaming in the light falls fast. Craig, (James P. Hayden) slips dead to the ground.
Peter and the others flee screaming into the forest. The rest of the day and terrifying night is spent running and hiding from the maniac murderer (Tom Drury) who is constantly in pursuit.
