A masked killer suddenly appears, brutally murdering the vacationers one by one. Marie finds herself the only one left, and begins to realize that the killer is the last person she would have ever suspected... Shot over 20 days in Hudson Valley, New York, Savage Weekend was a low-budget production from first-time director David Paulsen. It originally received a limited theatrical release as The Killer Behind the Mask in 1976. The Cannon Group picked the movie up for distribution three years later and re-released it as Savage Weekend. The film has since garnered a cult following for its gore, violence, and explicit content. It has also been noted as a forerunner to Friday the 13th (1980).
