What was the name of the town where the events of the movie take place?
Two miners, fully equipped with face masks, are seen descending into a deep mine shaft, each wielding a pickaxe. In a surprising twist, one of them, who reveals herself as a young woman, removes her mask and part of her uniform, standing provocatively before the other miner, who remains masked. As she performs a sultry striptease, she playfully touches the man’s mask and breathing apparatus. Suddenly, the atmosphere shifts dramatically when he seizes her, violently thrusting her against the pickaxe propped up nearby, and she is horrifically impaled.
In the town of Valentine’s Bluff, preparations are underway for a long-awaited Valentine’s Day dance. This quaint community, strongly tied to the coal mine industry, faces a dark history. Mayor Hanniger discusses the festivities with Mabel Osborne, a local laundromat owner, while alluding to a tragic past that has left scars on the town. Twenty years earlier, a catastrophic mining accident caused by the carelessness of two supervisors occurred just before Valentine’s Day, resulting in the entrapment of five miners. Tragically, only one survived—Harry Warden—who, pushed to the brink, endured unimaginable horrors, including cannibalism. After being rescued, he avenged his fallen coworkers by brutally murdering the negligent supervisors and left their hearts in Valentine boxes—a warning to never hold such festivities again.
Though the town has tried to move past this nightmare, excitement buzzes among the younger generation, particularly involving a complicated love triangle between T.J. Hanniger, the mayor’s son, and his friend Axel, both vying for the affection of Sarah. Their reunion becomes tense when T.J. returns from an unexplained absence, as Sarah has started dating Axel, sparking jealousy and conflict.
Events take a sinister turn when Mayor Hanniger and Chief of Police Jake Newby receive an anonymous box of Valentine’s chocolates, which horrifically contains a human heart, likely that of the woman from the film’s opening scene, accompanied by a menacing note warning against the dance. The ensuing chaos escalates as Mabel becomes the next victim of the masked killer, meeting a gruesome fate in her laundromat, her body later discovered stuffed into a dryer.
In a desperate attempt to mitigate public panic, Newby covers up the truth about Mabel’s murder, claiming she died of a heart attack. However, mounting fears emerge upon discovering Harry Warden might have resurfaced, particularly when the heart in the box is confirmed as human.
As Valentine’s Day approaches, T.J. and his friends decide to host their own gathering in the mine, dismissing the bartender Happy’s warnings about Harry Warden. Tragedy strikes again when Dave is gruesomely killed in the mine kitchen, experiencing an unimaginable death involving boiling water. The festivity rapidly spirals into gross misfortune when Sylvia, another partygoer, finds herself preyed upon, only to be discovered hanging from a shower nozzle by her boyfriend John.
As tensions escalate, the gang begins to unravel, discovering the horrifying realities within the mine as they encounter the remains of their friends. The atmosphere is thick with dread as they scramble to escape, only to face the masked miner—a true embodiment of their worst nightmares. In this intense climax, the identity of the killer is shockingly revealed as Axel, whose past trauma stemming from the events surrounding Harry Warden’s original killings ignited his violent tendencies.
In the frenzied finale, Axel traps his friends as the mine itself becomes a character in their horrific tale. As the entrance collapses, hope flickers briefly before Axel, driven mad by the past, threatens to return. As he ominously calls out to Sarah, “Sarah, be my bloody Valentine…!”, the shadow of horror looms large over Valentine’s Bluff, leaving the fate of its inhabitants uncertain.
