Rites of Spring

A group of kidnappers abduct the daughter of a wealthy socialite and hide out in an abandoned school in the middle of the woods. But feelings of guilt soon overtake the kidnappers, dividing the group and putting their entire plan in jeopardy. The evening further spirals out of control when their poorly chosen hideout becomes a hunting ground for a mysterious creature that requires spring-time ritualistic sacrifices. The film manages to break with the dusty genre conventions and expectations of the audience. Rites of Spring is no ordinary slasher film, but a bloody pearl, a brutal masterpiece, not to be missed.
