Stuck at college for Christmas, a group of sorority sisters trying to figure out what to do are persuaded to play with an Ouija board to contact the dead, but as the night progresses and the drugs screw with their brains realize that their lives are in jeopardy from outside forces and have to stop them.
Overall, this was a fairly enjoyable indie effort. One of the finest aspects here is the way it brings together a seemingly disparate amount of storylines and different elements that are brought together here. With features here that include a sleazy security guard hiding a dark secret, a strange serial killer running wild, interdimensional traveling that results in several rather shocking developments to occur as well as occult rituals that have a lot going on. This wildly varying approach produces quite an unusual storyline where it shifts around to feature these different aspects in brief bursts so it's somewhat straightforward about telling a non-linear storyline that retains a shocking edge due to the gritty, low-budget production. The gruesome reveals and points that come into play the later this goes along have that much of an extra sheen to them that replicates a wholly satisfying grimy, exploitative feel which is quite appreciated. That could also be seen as a detriment here with everything happening at once that it might appear to not know what it wants to be. There's a sleazy serial killer, a seance, alternate reality, and more such that it can't tell if it's a supernatural affair, a grimy exploitation effort, or an avant-garde piece due to all the varying colors, off-kilter camera angles, and visual tricks. The ability to pack it into such a brief feature is to be commended but throwing so much on-screen at once is also way too chaotic and disorienting under the wrong circumstances.
Rated Unrated/R: Graphic Violence, Full Nudity, drug use, and Graphic Language.
