Director Julian Richards, who brought us the outstanding genre flick THE LAST HORROR MOVIE, has re-teamed with star Kevin Howarth to bring us SUMMER SCARS - based on an incident that happened to the director during his childhood.When six fourteen year old kids truant school to play in the woods they are befriended by a drifter (Howarth) whose behaviour becomes increasingly abusive. Held hostage in their den they are forced to embrace the dark side of human nature if they are going to survive the ordeal.

"It's a very dark tale about the loss of innocence" explains Richards "...and like THE LAST HORROR MOVIE, I think it demonstrates that the best horror is real".
