George Kennedy adds some star power to this superior slasher about five campers who ignore his warnings about camping in the woods The film owes much to The Texas Chainsaw Massacre and The Hills Have Eyes and the Scooby Doo twist halfway through doesn't cover up all the plot holes but it's still well-paced , surprisingly grisly in parts and enertaining,
Deborah Benson ( as Connie )
Sex : No
Death : Survives
Deborah already had a few films under her belt before this and looked set for stardom but it didn't happen and she was playing minor parts in Knots Landing and Falcon Crest just a few years later. She initially gave up in 1992 but made a brief comeback in a couple of TV series in 2010-11.
Jamie Rose ( as Megan )
Sex : Megan frolics topless in a lake with her boyfriend then is felt up by a retard hiding in the lake. ( His ability to enter and exit the lake and spend a considerable time under the surface unnoticed is the film's most obvious plothole ).
Death : Killed offscreen by a retard, probably with a machete
This was Jamie's first film role after a couple of TV movies. Straight after it, she secured a regular role in Falcon Crest and her career was evenly split between B-movies and TV worrk thereafter. She is an acting coach with ther own studio in L.A. but hasn't made a screen appearance herself since 2016.
Katie Powell ( as Merry Cat )
Sex : No
Death : Survives
Katie made just five appearances- two films, three TV -spread out between 1979 and 1994.
