Anybody looking for different movie called The Fury?


When I was in the 3rd or 4th grade (which would have been 1983 or 1984), my sister rented a horror movie that we watched that had a burn victim turned murderer. I always thought it was titled, "The Fury", but the only movie by that title I can find is a Brian DePalma film. Anyway, from what I can recall, the guy was burned in a forest fire as a youth, grew up into a horribly scarred hermit living in the woods, and killed campers, but since that was more than 20 years ago, I could be totally wrong. The only thing I am positive about is the ending, in which the guy (who was abnormally tall, BTW) killed everyone is a group, with the exception of one girl who he took back to his cave to be his "bride". You see the outside of the cave, the change of seasons, and by the next spring, you hear the sound of a baby crying. THAT part scared the crap out of me.

Does anyone by any chance know what movie I'm talking about?

Thanks a bunch!

Actually, I also posted and got an answer on the "Don't Go Into the Woods" page. It's called "The Prey"; I was told "The Burning" isn't the same film.

For such an obscure movie, I was surprised by some of the people in it. "Uncle Fester" from The Addams Family TV show, "Lurch" from the Addams Family movie, "Jimmie Lee Holt" from General Hospital...perhaps others I'd recognize if I watched again.
