Synopsis/Details
The story opens with high school seniors Landon and Gertrude, as she slips into ill Landon’s bedroom window and they overhear his parents having sex. This leads to her propositioning Landon, shocking him.
Cut to Landon and Gertrude hiding in his home as his parents and sister are brutally murdered by two psychotic escaped prisoners, Karl and Clarence. The teens flee, with the psychos on their tail. They hide and scuffle, but end up running into a valley Gertrude’s also-slaughtered father once told her to avoid. Gertrude somehow knows to “baptize” each of them in a shallow bowl as they enter.
More fleeing and scuffling ensue until the teens escape deep into the woods. Just as the psychos decide to turn around and look for more unsuspecting victims, they are enshrouded in darkness where a shadowy crone grips their skulls and says, “Bring her to me.” The psychos are now black-eyed possessed juggernauts.
And that's when the chase is just getting started...
