The freshers Marti (Linda Blair), Jeff (Peter Barton), Denise (Suki Goodwin) and Seth (Vincent Van Patten) want to join the Alpha Sigma Rho fraternity and need to spend the night locked in the derelict Garth Manor as part of their initiation. The fraternity president Peter (Kevin Brophy) tells that the owner Garth killed his family but the body of his youngest son Andrew has not been found. Further, there are rumors that Andrew is still alive and lives hidden in the manor. Later, Peter and his friends May (Jenny Neumann) and Scott (Jimmy Sturtevant) sneak in and return to the mansion to play pranks on the pledges. But soon the group of freshers finds the tricks in the mansion while there is the beginning of a crime spree in the manor.
"Hell Night" is a brainless slasher, with a good storyline but awful screenplay. The plot has many flaws and the use of clichés and stupid decisions and situations. How operate with control and speakers in a house without electricity? Jeff and Marti seek out the killer with Marti holding one of his hands while the other holds the rake and the lamp. When they see monstrous killer, they decide to flee. Marti is escaping from the killer and finds a body on her way out and stops and returns to the mansion. The car does not start when Marti escapes from the serial-killer. There are lighted candles in the abandoned and locked manor. There are so many ridiculous situations that it would be possible to write a lot about this subject. My vote is three.
Title (Brazil): "Noite Infernal" ("Hellish Night")
