action
The young students Amy, Bunny, Anastasia, Brooke, Autumn, Kirsten, Pam, and Michelle are looking forward to a quiet long weekend in their dormitory. Except for the new Hungarian chef who is supposed to look after the few girls, none of the staff is there. The ambitious Amy is the first to meet the handsome young man who doesn't speak much English yet.
The other girls, who are much more addicted to pleasure, begin to get bored and wonder whether they should invite some boys. But when Michelle meets the attractive cook, she first makes clear advances. But instead of feeling sexually aroused by it, he cuts her throat. Then he prepares a delicious dinner for the other girls.
The next morning the cook surprises them again with a sumptuous breakfast that they mistake for cured beef, but cannot exactly define it. Her fellow student Lance shows up because he has an appointment with Bunny. He also tastes the food, but thinks it's more like chicken.
Kirsten and Anastasia are missing for dinner, but the two are only having fun together for the moment. The disappearance of Michele worries the girls more. When Brooke goes into the kitchen and accidentally finds Michele's necklace there, she becomes suspicious. After noticing the student, the cook pounces on her and silences her. However, this is more bloodthirsty than he expected and now he tries desperately to remove the traces of his deed before anyone notices.
In the meantime, Kirsten and Anastasia are having fun together, while the rest of the girls meet up with Bunny and Lance to have a little party. When Anastasia goes into the kitchen to look for chocolate sauce, she discovers a large piece of meat under a bloody cloth. When she wants to see below whether it is a moose, the cook first cuts off her hand with a cleaver and then kills her. Kirsten, who waits tied up in the room after the interrupted love game with Anastasia, is now visited by the cook and killed.
Pam, who lives in a room with Autumn, has a bath at night. When she wants to make it comfortable there, the cook appears, kills her and brings her into his kitchen. He is disturbed by Lance, who then breaks his neck in a duel. Then he kills Autumn.
Now only Bunny and Amy are left alive. Bunny is now looking for Lance and when she comes into the kitchen, the cook is holding his head in his hands. Horrified, Bunny tries to flee, but she too falls victim to the cook's bloodlust. In his madness, however, he does not stab fatally this time and Bunny loses consciousness. Amy now misses her fellow students and in search of them she reached a pantry in the basement and discovered the remains of the dead. Startled, she tries to back away, but the cook is already standing behind her with a knife and stabbing her in the back.
The atrocities are discovered on Monday morning after the return of the other students who had spent their weekend at home or on short vacation. During their investigation, the police find a box with the real Hungarian chef, who is believed to have been dead for months.
The only survivor is Bunny. She is being treated in the clinic, seriously injured, and cannot yet be questioned. When a nurse tries to give her an injection, she recognizes him as the cook, but can no longer defend herself against him.
criticism
Benedikt Bursch at maslohs.de evaluates: “The film is constantly indulging in various jokes, almost exclusively sexual and yet very pubescent. Unfortunately, there is no stopping at quite crude jokes. At least he restricts himself to the dialogue as far as possible and does not degenerate into a completely flat farce. Nevertheless, due to this weighting, it is unfortunately hardly possible to speak of teenage horror, even if all possibilities were given. "
"On stupid, slightly apronized students, brute humor and a good portion of bad taste-setting horror comedy that effortlessly undercuts every level."
