Passions are aroused and old wounds reopened in this sassy post-Scream teen slasher based on the urban legend of “The Hook”.
A steamy secret tryst that was brutally cut short on Valentine’s Day an unlucky thirteen years ago, comes back to haunt the teens who linger around the lovers lane where the double slaying took place.
The County Sheriff Tom Anderson (Matt Riedy) has just about come to terms with the fact that his wife died in another man’s car on that fateful night. His daughter Mandy (Erin J. Dean), who as a four-year-old saw her mother’s corpse carried away from the scene, has a different take on things. It doesn’t help that her classmate Michael (Riley Smith) lost his father to the same hook-handed homicidal maniac in that night’s incident. To cap it all off, as another Valentine’s Day comes round, reports come through that the man arrested as “The Hook” has just busted out of the asylum!
Newly restored by Arrow Video from a 4K scan of the original 35mm camera negative, prepare yourself for Lovers Lane, the ultimate hook-up in a scream-a-minute rollercoaster that marked the film debut of Anna Faris (Scary Movie, Lost in Translation). Available from arrowfilms.com
