It seemed perfect - a new house, a new marriage, a child soon to be born. But when Sarah and Matt invite their friends to celebrate, the situation turns deadly as they enter a burned-out prison on a ghost hunt.

Reviews
Cathardincu Surprisingly incoherent and boring
Frances Chung Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable
Guillelmina The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
Roxie The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;
Leofwine_draca BLEED is one of the better indie horrors I've seen recently but that isn't really saying too much. At least this film has something of a proper budget even if it is very low; the film looks quite slick and has a structured narrative which is unusual for this genre. The story is your usual guff about a bunch of ghost hunters exploring an abandoned prison and discovering a malignant spirit therein. There's a heck of a lot of padding involving extraneous characters to wade through, but believe me, it could be (and frequently is) worse.
BatesMT This movie has almost nothing going for it, so I will keep this review short and sweet. Yes there are spoilers in this review so be warned now.The villain, who looks like a member of the Wyatt family if you are familiar with wrestling right now, turns out not really be the villain, and he is a ghost who can turn into a fireball. Yep. It happens.There are people and kids with this weird birthmark on them that you think you will get a real explanation about. That doesn't happen. Some of the townsfolk seem super natural like but it turns out they are just your run of the mill cliché backwoods people.The characters are all forgettable and unlikable, the story makes no sense, like for example:The "villain", Kane, kills the black guy (shocker) first in the most wtf way (he humps the air and it slices the black dude all up... yea), but then goes on to save the other character later in the movie.While the old creepy burned down prison setting is actually a cool setting, the rest of the movie will make you forget that simply because it is just awful.Skip this one. Watch Last Shift instead which isn't much better, but it was way more coherent than this garbled up mess.Oh and another reviewer mentioned the "barely legible end credits", and he's not kidding. I thought my TV was dimming itself down.
Scy Quite simply the worst movie I have ever watched. I only got to the end of this drivel because I was sick in bed and lacked the energy to do anything about it. I think it made my condition worse.The plot is haphazard, barely presented before it all concludes. The acting is passable, but quite why any of the cast didn't walk off the set on the first day of filming eludes me. Talk about career suicide.There's some gore. Some minor jump-scares. That's all I can say in defense of this movie. The hillbilly-cult, ritual slaughter, helpful-but-scary ghost, missing child, abandoned burned-out prison, rescue butterflies, stolen baby plot is the sort of rubbish three teenage boys might scratch together in five minutes, each throwing their own stupid ideas into the mix without regard to coherence.Do the world a favor. Buy every copy of this movie you can get your hands on and burn them.
Ruby Chang I didn't completely dislike this film. In fact, especially at the beginning, I found it quite enjoyable. It did an excellent job at building up the suspense and the mystery, which really kept me invested, and some of the camera work, like with the cuts between visions, was very effective. But then some of the movie was just so odd. The background music in a couple scenes frankly did a disservice to what could have been some creepy or tense moments, and the chase scene as a whole was bizarre. I almost felt at some points that this film really could not decide what it wanted to be, which is a shame because it starts off so well, and this was really emphasized for me in some of the gorier scenes - intended to be scary and violent but kind of cheesy, in my opinion. The storyline is a little convoluted, but I did not have too much of a hard time keeping up because, as I said earlier, the beginning drew my attention well enough that I didn't end up paying only partial attention. Also, I think Chelsey Crisp and Brittany Ishibashi were especially phenomenal. I'll be keeping an eye out for any future work! All in all, a decent film! My feelings about it run on the extreme side: some parts made me REALLY like it, but others made me really dislike it, and I just don't have any middling opinions. Make of that what you will.
