Filmed in Colour

This pastiche horror film, released in 1998 and starring Jared Leto and Joshua Jackson, is about a group of college kids who are tormented by a demented killer. The killer takes famous urban legends as his inspiration for slaughter, and sets about committing a set of horrifyingly familiar murders.

Producer Neal Moritz, having patented the formula with I Know What You Did Last Summer, assembles a telegenic cast for more of the same: bring in the kids, then scare the pants off 'em. Look out for Tara Reid, Joshua Jackson (Dawson's Creek), Alicia Witt (Cybill) and My So-Called Life's Jared Leto.
