Bloodmoon

Under the blood red moon, love and grisly murder collide

1990100 min5.2 / 10

A slasher film that exploits the preppie-versus-townie divide and Catholic school setting to frame graphic murders of young lovers, driven by paranoia and the hunt for an unseen killer.

In the small town of Coopers Bay, there are two high schools situated right next to each other. There’s Winchester, an all boys comprehensive and St Elizabeth’s, a girl’s only Catholic faculty. They are separated by woodland where pupils from both can meet and engage the things that attract the attention of maniac killers. It’s not surprising then that an unseen one begins murdering the youngsters as they fornicate, strangling them with a length of barbed wire before removing their eyes and burying them under the soil. Mary, the daughter of a Hollywood movie actress, becomes involved when the killer targets her and Kevin, her boyfriend. But who is this twisted psychopath and why does he want to kill all the kids?
