Beautiful teenage Jenelle dances half-naked, drinks alcohol, does drugs, and has sex... but not for fun. She keeps a secret list titled "Horror Movie Sins" and checks each one off until.... a masked slasher appears! Her neck scar reveals she was attacked in the past by him and is now ready to fight back. She will do anything she can, including putting other people's lives at risk, in order to lure him, trap him, and defeat him once and for all. But she might be developing an addiction...
