action
Dawson is new to Bulimia Falls High and is immediately received "friendly". At the somewhat different school there is the murder of Screw, a girl who was considered one of the most popular at the school. Throughout the film, Dawson and his friends encounter the killer in a variety of situations; during sports, while showering, in a film lesson, in a car repair shop and in the ladies' toilet. None of the five friends are injured. Meanwhile, Haghita Utslay, a presenter from EmpTV , also became aware of the case. She is protected by a supervisor of the department store. Ultimately, some teenagers from school meet in an old house where they can party. However, all but five friends and a drunk girl disappear from the party when they learn that the headmaster's body has been found. The killer is also in the house. The first of the five to be caught is Boner, who brought the drunken lady into a bedroom in the house. Due to Boner's cardiac arrest, the killer is unsuccessful. While Dawson and his girlfriend Martina roam the house, they find Slab in a bathroom who has injected himself with an overdose of steroids. After his body hair increased extremely, his body literally exploded. In front of the house, Haghita, her cameraman, Teigi the department store guard, and a pizza delivery boy play strip poker. In the house, Barbara looks for beer in a refrigerator in the garage. The killer appears here too. Barbara tries to escape through the cat flap in the garage door, but gets stuck. Finally she breaks free and runs into the garden. The killer pursues them with a gardening tool, which he accidentally uses to cut figures out of the bushes. Barbara dies of numerous bee stings. So here too the killer is unsuccessful. Dawson and Martina finally meet the killer and a chase begins, which leads through the whole house and past all the victims. Ultimately, they arrive at a staircase and the killer is there too. After some back and forth, Martina catches the killer. Only now do Haghita and the three men go to the house. Martina and Dawson unmask the killer, but discover that he is wearing not just one mask, but several. They all have different shapes and looks. Eventually, it turns out that the killer is Teigi's evil twin cousin. After a lengthy conversation, Haghita accidentally shoots the killer while pulling the trigger while applying makeup. A few seconds later she also shoots the cameraman. In the end, Haghita runs away with the pizza delivery boy, the killer lives again for a short time, but this time he is deliberately shot by Teigi. Boner survives too, because he swallowed so many potency pills that they continue to move his blood. The film ends with comments on the victims and what happened next. In the entire film, the killer does not kill a single victim himself.
Reviews
"Bloody effects, an arsenal of characters from the Witzblatt, caricaturing cross-references to the horror film and deep handles in the cliché box characterize this film with various teenage stars, which is garish, but not particularly original."
