Featured reviews
Let me tell you 1st that I have never written a review before but I felt I had to this time because there was no way that this movie got such high reviews. I knew I should have watched the trailer 1st before believing any of these reviews. They must be from friends or family members. The acting is so bad and the whole movie is just plain stupid.
I went into this movie with an open mind. The title seemed awfully cliche, but the ratings were remarkably high, so we assumed (wrongfully) that it must be some sort of self-aware, satirical take on the genre. Plus we're active enjoyers of love low-budget, indie horror. Nope. This is Just Bad. It can't even be redeemed as good-bad or campy, there's just not enough personality in the production to even *try* to find humor in it. Everything is just bland and predictable, if not annoying and redundant. Takes itself wayyy too seriously for how pointless of a story it is. I wouldn't have even taken the time to review this movie if it weren't for the ridiculous amount of 10/10 reviews it has, even the 8/10 reviews, anything positive here has to have either been bought and paid for by the producers or coerced out of friends and family. Don't fall for the scam like we did. 🙃
If I'm unsure of if I should watch a horror movie, I pull it up on IMDB. It's usually a pretty safe bet if it's rated above a 6, and since this was a whopping 7.7 when I pulled it up, I thought, "wow, this is totally gonna be worth the $5 to rent it!!" I was robbed lol. In going back and reading the reviews in more depth, this movie is just the best of DBS's many movies. If you don't know who or what that is, the acting is TERRIBLE, the script hasn't been proofread, and even I could tell the cinematography was awful. It was like watching a film school project, and looking at it that way, they did a good job on this movie- the blood effects were decent and I'd give them a passing grade for the class. But having to pay for it on Amazon... don't waste your money!!
Unless you know DBS, then go for it, you'll apparently love it lol.

Holy bonkers Batman, maybe if they had put some of the money they used bribing people to leave FAKE stellar reviews for this steaming pile of fly attractors, they could've used it on acting lessons and the movie may have been a little more tolerable.
Ok let's break this sack of garbage down like we're trying to separate stuff for recycling, cause to he honest, that's the best thing that could happen to this a movie, a recycling center.
The script well it's just awful. Some of the things they say are so asinine and heck not even true statements to begin with! For example, the "leading lady" after their radios go on the fritz says, "Yeah the frequencies are down." This was in response to one of the other characters, cause I refuse to call these kids "actors" said he had tried to radio her but got no response. Ok so, radio frequency is well radio waves, and unlike electricity or wifi and the internet, they don't "go down" the only thing that makes radios or walky talkies if you will not work is when the frequency is being BLOCKED by something such a radio frequency jammer or distance or any large physical objects. Radio frequencies don't "go down" they are always there all the time traveling all through the air.
Next, I'm sure if you read any of the REAL reviews and not the fake fluff reviews posted by friends and family and possibly even paid/bribed people, is ATROCIOUS! I mean I've seen better acting from a 5 year old playing with action figures. The acting is in par with high school plays AT BEST! Cause I've even seen high school plays that had better acting than this movie. How these people got cast boggles my mind.
Back to another part of the script, the overall plot and story, again is pure unimaginative steaming garbage! Absolutely nothing original or well thought out. It's a complete rip off and copy of every other over night lock in paranormal investigation that goes awry movie that has been done and even done WAY better before it. If you wanna watch a good horror movie, in fact it was good enough to even garner a sequel, Close Ecounters is a way...WAY better horror movie of a paranormal investigative team filming for a show and getting locked in to a haunted location and everything that can go wrong does go wrong. Make sure you watch both of them too to get the full story. In fact, I think I've made my point and I'm gonna go watch that myself to try and get the nasty taste of this movie out of my psyche.
So, in closing I'm super grateful I didn't pay to watch this joke of a movie and it was free on Amazon and yet I still feel like I got hit over the head and mugged in a NYC alley. If you got duped by all the fake, false, garbage fluff reviews, I truly empathize for you. DO NOT SPEND MONEY TO WATCH THIS! You'll regret it if you do I PROMISE!

This should be illegal. An 8.0 imdb for horror is top notch. This is not it. I just paid 5$ for a movie I would never watch bc if it was reviewed genuinely it would be maybe a 3!!!
