With the mansion gates mysteriously locked, the teens find themselves trapped for the night...and soon they're fighting ancient flesh eating demons for their very souls.

[edit] Reception
Reception for the film has been positive for the most part, with Bloody Disgusting giving a good review of the film, saying "This film isn't your typical by-the-numbers rehash, Adam Gierasch throws in some nice directorial touches including a sepia-toned silent movie style opening flashback and a fast-paced in your face punk rock attitude that helps the film rise above many of today's remakes."[18] Dread Central's review was a bit mixed, giving the review 3 1/2 blades out of 5, saying "It’s brash, loud and sexy, but a few too obvious flaws unfortunately knock the film down a peg. In the end it’s still a fun ride and certainly worth a watch on an evening when you’d rather disengage the brain and sink a few drinks than deal with anything more cerebral."[19] Another reviewer on ZombieCommand said that the film "achieved exactly what Geirasch set out to do and was very entertaining to boot" and was a "good teen scary movie".[20] Fright Fest director and founder stated that the audience response in general was noted to be positive for the film.[21]
