A group of Jewish teens are getting ready to party for the holidays but are in for a Festival of Frights. With the help of a wise rabbi, they deduce that the murder victims have violated Judaic law and that their only chance at survival is to embrace their faith.
Judah Lazarus, known as the Hanukiller, terrorized the streets of New York for each of the 7 days of Hanukkah in 1983. Judah, believing it was God's will, had intended to sacrifice his only son Obediah Lazarus to God on the 8th day of Hanukkah, before the police intervened in time to gun down Judah and save Obediah in the process. Now grown-up, Obediah has become consumed with hatred and a lust for vengeance, and begins a killing spree targeting non-Jews, bad Jews, and any perceived enemies of the Jewish faith. His next targets are a group of delinquent Jewish teens who, with the help of a Rabbi, deduce that the only way to stand a chance against the Hanukiller is to embrace their Jewish heritage and faith.
