At first I wasn't expecting much from this film. It seemed initially to be a clone of the 'Saw' films, but it proved to become much more than that. A group of ably acted, abrasive characters wake up in an abandoned building with no memory of how they got there.As the films rolls on, we become aware that they all have grim stories to tell; their flaws are many and it appears they may even have ended up in Hell – especially as one of their number Daniel (Jason Martorino) is revealed as major villain with an assortment of partially successful demons (thankfully untouched by CGI). Having cast the cultured-sounding Martorino, I question the wisdom of then giving him lines like 'just kill the mother-f***** already' which sound unconvincing.And yet his performance is otherwise very good – and so is that of the little girl Ceilia (Ellie O'Brien) who manages a potent performance even when given some punishing lines. A very enjoyable film.

If you've ever seen a mega-church Halloween hell house you know exactly how this goes. Except for the boobies and f-bombs, I can easily imagine this being shown to the church youth group. They should really consider making a nudity free cut for the church circuit.The monster costumes were surprisingly good practical effects. Yeah, it is obviously humans in costumes, but it still looked better and more "real" than the terrible CGI you get in a lot of low-budget films. Props for that.The setting was pretty good too. It was believable as a dilapidated abandoned hospital. The lighting was sufficient to see what you needed to see.The acting was not very good, but that is par for the course with low budget horror movies. Pretty much made-for-TV quality acting.The dialog was clumsy. Especially the swearing. The swearing was really inauthentic and a bit random, as though written by someone who doesn't swear but decided a movie about "bad people" needed swearing.A basic morality play. You probably won't find it scary unless it is the first horror movie you've ever seen though. It is more concerned with pushing a moral than in being frightening or entertaining.

Now this movie is not one of those with star cast, fancy effects or big ass budgets.With that said I think this movie deserves some appreciation with the effort that was put into providing a good plot and twists.Even with the many flaws in acting during the first couple of minutes, it improved to some extent as the movie progressed. Truth be told, I nearly quit watching after just the first five minutes. I only continued watching so I can see how worst the acting gets, however it turned out I was in for a little surprise.After the introduction of all the characters, my perception of the movie changed. I was wondering who was who, I was also trying to predict what would happen only to fail.That encouraged me to watch more and more until the ending, where I witnessed one of the most unique endings to a horror movie I have watched in while.If you ask me this movie doesn't provide star actors or super star acting. But what it does provide is a good plot with a seriously unpredictable events making for an entertaining movie.

Seems to have a solid premise, and it kept me interested for about half an hour. Then the pace dropped and the dialogue fell apart, with lots of irritating Q&A and some lines that any actor would be ashamed to deliver. Apart from the guy who plays the devil with a double helping of blue cheese: "enduring that kind of pain must be unbearable - mwahaha". Yes, that bad. You end up with cardboard characters in a dumb morality play. Plus the premise becomes confused because the victims start out dead, but then two are alive. Plus those stupid demons. Not only is there nothing new in this, it deteriorates so badly that you can sense the cast losing all conviction.It is worth waiting to find out why the little girl is in the movie. But too many things have gone wrong by that stage. Totally ham-fisted.
