Review
Years ago I have seen this on VHS but now after probably 20 years or so returning to this movie was a pleasant surprise. I had a memory that this was fun teenage horror film and it really was.
Story is straightforward with interesting and surprising elements and it is opening to viewer in good pace. Who is this mystery person who just comes and wants to kill these teenagers? Or is it even some of themselves?
All the elements for a enjoyable teenage horror film was there and they were used in good taste so this was still worth watching.

Group of teenagers drive over a man at night. Man dies, or at least that is what they think and they panic and want to get rid of the body. When they are throwing the body to the lake or sea they notice that he wasn't dead on the car accident but now they have thrown him to the water to die. This secret burns them inside and it causes issues to their friendships, but bigger issue is still yet to come a year later when they will find out that somebody wants them dead and knows what they have done.
I have seen this movie years ago on VHS and year ago on January and I still liked this. This is a good teen horror film.
Story is good. It grows very well and the person behind all the kills is revealed only late in the movie what is a good thing. I like how camera is used. In chases when they show woman escaping the killer the camera is shaking, but when they show the killer who is chasing him camera stays stable what tells about the emotions of the characters with the camera usage.
Music is good and scenes uses music and silence very well. When the music is silent in correct times it gives more tension for the viewer.
I like this movie and it is worth the watch many times.
