In the summer of 2006, five teenagers break into an abandoned prison that is supposedly haunted. As they explore the place, they discover that what inhabits it is much more dangerous than the paranormal. What was once an innocent last adventure before college becomes a vicious fight for survival.
Review by Dennis Harvey
No horror-centric fest would be complete without at least one “found-footage” narrative, and this effort by James Bessey and Karsen Schovajsa (who are also in the cast) manages to be a cut above average in a frequently tired subgenre. Five friends venture to a long-shuttered private prison facility in rural Georgia that was notorious for its abuses, intending to videotape their nocturnal poking-around for a web show exploring “haunted” places. Needless to say, what they find is much, much worse than the mild shivers hoped for. Straightforward and nasty, this doesn’t boast any particularly original ideas, but goes from creepy to brutal with impressive dedication.
