This movie was taken from Hal Masonberg, the director, by producers (the same genius who produced ‘Broken Arrow’ and told John Woo he didn’t ‘know action’) and re-cut from the first to the last frame. Conceived and initially executed with a slower, more suspenseful pace, it was simultaneously sold by producers as a teen gore-fest, thus disappointing everyone.

There is a director’s cut out there, and it is well worth seeing.
