Summary

Two teenage girls heading to a concert are abducted by a gang of escaped convicts and taken into the woods, where they are brutalized. By chance, the criminals later seek shelter at the home of one victim's parents, who slowly piece together what happened and exact a brutal revenge. Wes Craven's notorious debut is a grim reworking of Bergman's The Virgin Spring.
