Pam uses the car to back the dad into a wall and kill him. He manages to chop on a cop's leg before he dies. The movie ends with Pam and Ed in hospital together. They are happy that it is all over.
This was a fun horror movie. It is one that I had heard about, but had never gotten a chance to see.
I liked it and I thought that it was entertaining. There are some great kills in it and the story is good.
I enjoyed watching this and if you like slashers, then this will be for you. I recommend this one. I am going to give it a 6/10.
