A low-budget slasher horror film about a satanist cop hunting teenagers, built on genre conventions of stalking, murder, and supernatural menace.

Officer Joe Vickers would probably make a good policeman if it weren't for his two nasty habits. Firstly, he is a devoted satanist; secondly - he likes to kill people. When he meets a group of teenagers spending their vacation in a wood hut, he decides to investigate.
