Summer Scars is a fast paced coming of age story, based upon actual events. It chronicles what would have otherwise been a typical afternoon for a group of disillusioned youths who meet a weird character named Peter (Kevin Howarth) who will change their lives forever. Peter employs the help of the kids in the search for his lost dog, "Jesus". Peter oozes with creepy fascination. You do no™t know whether to be entertained by him, or just plain scared. He moves from creepy to psycho right back into a childlike kid with ease, making his character that much more of a menace. Peter breaks up a fight between the kids by pulling out an old pellet gun and in a swift move the film takes a turn for the worse in a very Jack Ketchum kind of way. Ultimately the kids are confronted with their own adolescence, and face a choice that will forever change their lives. Summer Scars is a dark and haunting film and certainly comes recommended.

Absolutely no plot and completely empty .This was one of the most boring and nonsensical movies I've seen in awhile.
