Here's a synopsis for Sam's Lake from the official website for the movie: "Near a lake in an isolated area, an escaped psychiatric patient makes his way through the surrounding wilderness, back to his childhood home, slaughtering his family in their sleep, then runs into the woods never to be found. Many years later the horrifying massacre has turned legend as disappearances haunt the surrounding towns. ¶ Sam (Fay Masterson), a young woman who, every summer, returns home to the secluded lakeside cottage where she grew up, reconnects with her traditions, old friends and memories of the past. ¶ This year, a group of hip, young urbanites, Kate (Sandrine Holt), Franklin (Stephen Bishop), Melanie (Megan Fahlenbock) and Dominik (Salvatore Antonio) join Sam on her annual trip. But when Sam and her friend Jesse (William Gregory Lee), a local to the area, take the group on an adventure to revisit the site of the murder they all come face to face with the terrifying legend of 'Sam's Lake'."
