Let's talk about the plot.
4 kids, one in a wheelchair visit a old asylum in the 1940s. 3 of the boys climb through a side window and leave the boy in the wheelchair outside but they never come out and the boy in the wheelchair is now stranded as he can't move the chair himself..... fast forward to 2002 and we see a gang of friends pull up outside the old asylum and the boy in the wheelchair is still there waiting....ok, i'm kidding about that but it would have been funny seeing his chair and a pile of bones in it but i'm guessing he got found somewhere in between the 40s and 2000s and someone took him home because we never seen him again
Anyway the gang are there to throw an illegal rave for freshers week and hope to cash in on drunk students. They enter the asylum and look around and it's pretty small to be fair as it only has a few rooms and a hallway and the main dj room is pretty cramped. It looked huge on the outside but i guess its like the tardis but in reverse.
The gang settle in and begin to set up and we learn a little about them through forced dialogue and crappy writing.
There's the main guy who is an unlikable git, there's his girlfriend whos boring ,her friend who i think likes his girlfriend more than just friends but i'm not too sure. The dj whose acting is just as awful as his rapping scene, the party planner/filmmaker and his assistant who are pretty dull.....oh yeah, and the local sl*t, who constantly throws herself at the unlikable git.
Nothing really happens after that tbh. There's some love triangle stuff between the git and sl*t and his girlfriend the electrics keep blowing. One of them keeps seeing some ghost boy. This is pretty much 90%of the films plot and just repeats itself over and over until the amazing climax there is some pretty dumb moments in this where they are supposed to be building tension but it goes nowhere It's like: guy 1 "we have to get the party ready but oh no! The lights keep blowing for no reason what's going on?...oh wait. The lights are back on now, its fine" or guy 1; "who flooded this room? You did this didn't you " guy 2; "no i didn't, the tap doesn't work ,see" guy 1; "i don't believe you. Oh wait, there's no pipe going to the the tap, then how did this happen ?..oh well nevermind".
Or girl 1; "oh my god i saw something" girl 2; "what did you see?" girl 1 * says absolutely nothing* girl 2; "you're crazy" girl 1; "no i'm not" a scene of two of the girls dancing in furry leopard string bikinis in a cage that came completely out of the blue and provided nothing to the plot apart from the metal cage they were in got stuck. Was a ghost child that locked them in???...sexy and spooky....not really.
The dj leaves to get a new amp as the ghost kids blew his up and the rest start seeing the kids and completely crap their pants. Instead of leaving straight away they decide to investigate further then one girl notices the layout of the asylum keeps changing and they somehow get lost in an asylum with 4 rooms and one hallway and they get cornered by hanging electrical wires because they have the combined i.q of 12 and one of the girls grabs one of the wires that's sparking like a complete idiot and we fade to black... the dj comes back 1 hour later and sees the place completely smashed up. There's smashed bottles and doritos 3d crisps all over the place and nobody's around. He starts loudly complaining and accusing them of already having the rave without him even though he's only been gone for 1hr and there's no working amp to play music. He walks arounds shouting everybody's names but can't find them in the huge 4 room one corridor asylum. Meanwhile the rest of the the gang now washed out in a blue hue also walk around looking for the dj and they both meet in the same room but the dj sees the bodies of his friends on the floor dead and they are all burnt and crispy. From the live wires. The dj stares for quite a while at his charred friends and then legs it the rest of the gang realise he couldn't see them and they realise they are dead. They accept this with no problem and don't look the slightest bit sad they are now ghosts and walk into a hall where they once again meet the ghost kids. The kids walk up and take their hands and lead them out of the room possibly to get them to help open a jar of ghost jam or something.....the end,
I just watched this on netflix as it seems to have just been put up. Well for me anyway and i gotta wonder why they would pick something that was as bad if not worse as someone's gcse drama project.
Were they wondering around the bbc archives looking for movies to put on and see an old copy of this wedging up a table in the coffee room and decide it would be a great idea to charge people a subscription fee to watch it as a sick joke?
It's such a bad film and the acting and plot are just terrible. Is it watchable? Well of course it is, but not because it's a great movie and has a riveting plot but because you can laugh and cringe all the way through it because it's soo terrible .
Maybe netflix knew this and thought it'd be a great film for people to take the pee out of but honestly i think they would show any old s**t.
