SYNOPSIS: On
Valentine’s Day 20 years before, an explosion of methane gas
took the lives of a group of coal miners working in the
Hanniger Mine near the small town of Valentine Bluffs. The
accident occurred because supervisors left their posts to
attend the annual Valentine’s Day dance. A year later, Harry
Warden, the only survivor of the accident, retaliated by
killing the two supervisors and leaving a terrifying warning
never to hold another Valentine’s Day dance. After two
decades have passed, despite warnings, a group of young
adults start preparations for another dance. When a
blood-soaked heart arrives at the police station,
accompanied by an ominous message, the dance is canceled.
However, a Valentine party is held in its place at the coal
mine and it isn’t long before people begin dying violently.
It appears Warden has returned to punish those who did not
heed his warning.
