A quintet of youngsters - perfect couple Heather (Hayley Derryberry) and clean-cut John (Paul J. Porter), not so perfect couple Summer (Hannah Landberg) and redneck Adam (Josh Hammond), and wallflower Julie (Jessica Sonneborn) - decide to go to the country for a bit of hunting, fishing, swimming and partying at a cabin in the woods in the middle of nowhere, USA.

At first everything goes great, the locals are a likable bunch, doing their best to squash backwoods clichés by making fun of them, the weather is nothing but nice, they run across hippie-ish photographer David (Brandon Stacy), who might just be a perfect fit for Julie (if it wasn't for his sexual challenges), and the only thing that might spoil their fun is a bear that was witnessed in the neighbourhood - but bears don't attack humans just like that, and in the remote case they might, the friendly neighbourhood sheriff (Brian Reece) has provided our heroes with a bear trap even ... and then, John and Summer go missing together. Now that's troubling especially for Heather, because all evidence suggests that there might be a sexual undercurrent to this - and yes there was, actually, but when Heather and Julie find Summer murdered, they wish it was just that, and everything sure as hell points to John being the killer ... and that he might have the rabies, too. But then David, who has so far been the nicest guy on earth, starts to behave increasingly weird - and once Heather has been left pretty much the last girl standing, she has to realize there's something much more sinister and dangerous going on than her boyfriend having turned into a homicidal beast ...

 

Put down in writing, Rabid Love might sound like your typical slasher movie - but on film, it actually transcends genre boundaries inasmuch as the story does relie on original plottwists more than your usual formula and takes its time to develop the story rather than just throw the characters into predictable situations - but that said the film's still thense and suspenseful enough to keep the audience interested. And combine this with a bunch of interesting and well-written characters (not exactly something the genre is usually big on) played by a very competent ensemble cast and a subtle enough directorial effort, and you've got yourself a pretty good movie!
