A teacher and a group of college students head up to a mountain area to do something I can't remember but end up fighting demons that somehow escaped from a mine. Along the way they receive help from Dan Haggerty and Richard Harrison (who isn't even credited here at the IMDb). Man, this is one bad movie. Somehow everything Haggerty starred in during this time period (this, REPO JAKE, ELVES) just drags and drags and drags. The plot is relatively simply but director Grant Austin Waldman does his best to fudge it up. Seriously, by the time it ended I need a notepad to figure out the entire thing. The best scene has Haggerty finding out something about someone's blood and racing to tell the others on his motorbike. He gets knocked off and killed so we never learn what he found out! There are some bad effects and one nude scene that can't help cover the taxing cost to one's brain from the entire film. Also starring Fred Olen Ray alum Jay Richardson.
