Storyline

Six friends, who've known each other from childhood, break into the tower block they lived in as kids, now deserted and condemned, to rig-up a pirate radio station, get high and party. When one of the group goes missing, her friends begin to search the dark interior of the tower and soon realize that they are not alone: a resident psychopath lurks in the shadows and is hunting them down, taking them out, one-by-one.

User Reviews

Excellent horror - very tense and very real - with a decent plot

I loved this film. It was a very tense and very real horror. I was hooked from begin to end. The death scenes were great and very realistic for a change. I was actually interested by the characters, which in most horrors I'm not. I didn't expect to care about a group of hoodies but in the end you do. I felt that Jacob Anderson (Lloyd) and Jesscia Barden (Kelly) shone through as two very strong young actors. The setting was very atmospheric and grim. The sound and music also added a great deal and really heightened the tension throughout the film. I'd be keen to see if they are making a sequel as the film leaves you wanting more. 10 stars
