The film which you are about to see is an account of the tragedy which befell a group
of five youths, in particular Sally Hardesty and her invalid brother Franklin. It is all
the more tragic in that they were young, but had they lived very, very long lives, they
could not have expected, nor would they have wished to see as much of the mad and macabre
as they were to see that day. For them, an idyllic summer afternoon drive became a nightmare.
