Synopsis/Details
A love letter to bad cinema and a send-up of horror tropes, this is Scary Movie meets The Room, with the looping logic of Happy Death Day and the absurd chaos of The Final Girls.
Bad-movie superfan Dutch convinces his three friends — pragmatic Terra, power-lifting Angelika, and perpetually unimpressed Gomez — to visit the filming location of an infamously awful horror flick. But when they step inside, they find themselves trapped in a looping, living version of the movie’s cheap sets and bargain-bin monsters.
Each time someone dies, the night resets, forcing them to relive every low-budget death scene from the original film. Dutch is convinced his encyclopedic knowledge of bad cinema will get them out, but his constant need to be the “hero” might doom them all.
When the loop suddenly breaks and the first death happens out of order, the tone shifts from absurd to deadly — and surviving means beating the worst movie logic ever written before the credits roll for good.
With the meta mayhem of Cabin in the Woods and the unhinged absurdity of The Room, this is a fast-paced, self-aware horror-comedy that embraces the chaos of cinema’s trashiest tropes… and then turns them lethal.
