Summary

Decades after a returning WWII soldier murdered his unfaithful fiancée and her lover at a graduation dance, a small college town revives the tradition. As students gather for the first such dance in 35 years, a killer in army fatigues stalks the campus with bayonet, pitchfork, and shotgun, leaving the sheriff's deputy and a young woman to uncover who is behind the mask.
