Synopsis
Jack Brooks has problems. Ever since the fateful night his family was brutally murdered by a bloodthirsty creature, he’s had a lot of… anger. Working as a plumber and going to night school, life’s looking pretty grim until Professor Crowley accidentally unleashes an ancient curse with monstrous results. It’s a beautiful thing when someone discovers their destiny. It’s even more beautiful when that destiny is to fight monsters in an outrageous crescendo of blood and gore. Jon Knautz’s rip-roaring directorial debut stars Trevor Matthews and the legendary Robert Englund, better known as Freddy Krueger from A Nightmare on Elm Street.
