About
You might enjoy this if you like low-budget, found-footage-style haunted-location chaos and can laugh at rough edges; Not for you if you want clear scares, likable characters, or coherent plotting like Abandoned or Psych:9.
Pros: creepy prison setting; occasional unintentional laughs | Cons: very dark visuals; weak acting; confusing story
