Since I watched just the first quarter hour, I didn't find this particularly scary or otherwise upsetting.  Mainly, it felt like a low-budget teen film of the late-Carter era, although gorier than most.  It would've scared the crap out of me at 12 had I actually wanted to, or been allowed to, see it.  Sean S. Cunningham directed.  Note that 21-year-old Kevin Bacon is recognizable as Jack, four years before he'd play a high-schooler in Footloose.
