The Final Terror (1983)


Comworld Pictures
Directed by Andrew Davis
My rating: 3 stars out of 4
IMDb Wikipedia
(Blu-ray, Scream Factory)

A group of teens volunteer to help search for two missing park rangers in a California redwood forest. The leaders of the group soon turn up missing after they venture off to have sex. Their bodies, or parts thereof, are found sending the group into a terrified frenzy. They are picked off one by one by a killer whom we only get a glance of and whose identity could be their driver who bullied and threatened them. Of course it turns out to be someone completely different. Very atmospheric rural slasher shot entirely on location in a redwoods state park. The tension is palpable in the group of young actors and even the final reveal of the killer manages to surprise.
