Synopsis: Five friends set out for a weekend camping excursion, to drink, frolic and skinny-dip on an isolated piece of land one of them has inherited. Despite ominous warnings from locals, including forest ranger Roy McLean (George Kennedy, Airport, Deathship) and Ty (Mike Kellin, Sleepaway Camp), a hollering drunken hunter claiming to have witnessed his friend's evisceration by the hands of "Demons", the friends trek further into the foliage. Co-starring Gregg Henry (Mean Dog Blues, Rich Man Poor Man), Deborah Benson (September 30, 1955), Jamie Rose (TV's Lady Blue), Chris Lemmon (TV's Thunder in Paradise) and Ralph Seymour (Underground Aces).

From director Andrea Bianchi (Burial Ground) comes the story of Tony (Henry Silva, Code of Silence, Sharky's Machine, Johnny Cool), a sadistic, cold-blooded hit man sent to Italy to settle a war between two rival criminal gangs. Caught in the middle is Margie (Barbara Bouchet, Caliber 9, Amuck, Don't Torture a Duckling), a former hooker now married to a mob boss.
