Synopsis

The Desmond - the building's pleasant sounding name hides a troubled past. The high rise has a long history of fires, murders, madness and even colonial era genocide upon the site. The towering building has stood empty for the better part of a century and even squatters dare not enter it's fortress like walls. But now Johnny Craig, the host of the popular TV paranormal investigation show 'America's Most Haunted' is planning to do a prime-time special from inside The Desmond. With no known way in, or out, Craig has contacted a group of urban explorers to help him and his film crew enter the building. But when Craig and his team set foot inside The Desmond the events that caused the building to be abandoned in the first place begin to repeat.

blamdrum It's almost a shame this movie didn't crest over the point when a movie is SO bad...it's good. I kept waiting for that moment but it never came. But it came close, and here are those moments. The first moment was when the "film crew" was entering the "bad" building, and a few "creepy" bald guys peered out from hiding spots to watch them walk by. Their make-up was just terrible enough to be hilarious. Oddly enough the creepy blue man group never made another appearance in the film, almost like the filmmakers forgot they added them and include them into the "plot" later. The second moment was when one of the female cast members, (I don't remember her name because there is virtually no character development in the movie)was pointing a gun into a room, and the door slammed shut on her hand, severing the hand off. What makes this scene hilarious is there is no attempt from the other characters to administer first aid of any kind. One would assume, at minimum a tourniquet would be used to stop the expected bleeding. One of the male cast says, "You're going to be OKAY"! A very funny thing to say to someone a few seconds after their hand is severed by a door. The other "almost terrible enough" moment(s) is the idiotic crew they have waiting in a van outside the building while our would-be ghost hunters are being killed off one by one. The comparisons to the Scooby Doo cast can not be overlooked. The two women in the van lose contact with the rest of the gang in the building and keep dismissing the obvious tragedy unfolding with excuses of technical problems, or bad connections. If the filmmakers had shown the two women eating pistachio nuts with a disinterested uncaring attitude, or sitting in a van filled with pot smoke, or even in the sensual embrace of lovemaking, it would have been a home run! Otherwise: Terrible acting, overacting, but let's be fair not even Daniel Day-Lewis could have saved this movie with a script apparently written by someone with serious attention deficit to story line.
xufo It's just incredible! Until now I couldn't even imagine that it's at all possible to make such incredibly bad movie. It's even hard to tell what is the worst part of it. Acting? Story line? Characters? Special effects? Camera work? Whatever you pick it's all bad. First, let's start with the story line. Well, it's weak and predictable. Not only it's weak and lacks of logic but also literally ridden with overused clichés. Another group of young people goes to another abandoned building, splits there and dies one by one. Characters are dull and acting looks quite unnatural. They even die in silly and impossible ways. Special effects are definitely not making this movie any better. They could have been OK for a one from the 60s or, maybe, 70s, but definitely not OK for a movie filmed in 2015, no matter how low the budget was. As for the horror component (finally, it's a horror movie, right?) there's nothing scary here. You won't find neither tension buildup nor even cheap jump-scares. Nope. Nothing except dimly lit corridors and empty rooms. Making long story short: don't waste your time.
faxirgulee A movie made by some really amateur guy, played by a dozen amateur ugly young people, watching it is losing time. No one of the people in this movie is an actress and they never will be one. A movie made by some really amateur guy, played by a dozen amateur ugly young people, watching it is losing time.

David Wadsworth (ComputerDaveUK) Over acting, under acting, stock characters and a story line written by a ZX81. I have heard of some of the cast but no-non stands out.You have seen it all done before a lot better but not much worse. Just pick out any abandoned building movie (like Mirrors) and it will be better than this.I always like to say which bits were bad and which bits were OK but I seriously cant think of anything I like. Around about the hour mark I started to lose any interest in this film but stayed doggedly on until the inevitable conclusion. Around Christmas seems to be the 'Release the Golden Raspberries' time and this is one of them.Sorry about the very short review but it is far harder reviewing a bad film than a good one.End of line.
