Moonstalker is a 1989[1] American slasher film written and directed by Michael O'Rourke and starring Ernest Abernathy, Blake Gibbons, John Marzilli, and Kelly Mullis.

[2] In a rural mountainous region outside Reno, Nevada, Harry, his wife Vera, son Mikey and daughter Tracy are having a wintry camping excursion.

Meanwhile, P. J., another of the campers en route to the wilderness retreat, stumbles upon Harry and Vera's campsite, and is strangled to death by Bernie with a chain.

Bernie begins to dispatch members of the wilderness troupe, first killing Jane and her boyfriend in their tent before the others gather for their first meeting, overseen by the stern camp director, Regis, and his eccentric girlfriend, Marcie.

As the group head to their tents to sleep, Debbie, fascinated by the story, asks Ron to accompany her to see Bernie's dilapidated familial cabin, to which he agrees.

Back at Harry and Vera's camp, police discover the bodies and detective Tom Taylor begins investigating the murders.

When he approaches, he finds it to be the numerous corpses of Bernie's victims tied to a swinging board, with a boombox playing campfire songs; attached to the rope is Sophie, in a makeshift noose, struggling to get air.

[3] Vinegar Syndrome released the film on Blu-ray in a newly-restored print on November 25, 2022, as part of their Homegrown Horrors: Volume II box set, alongside Hanging Heart (1989) and Dead Girls (1990).
