About
You might enjoy this if you like simple haunted-house survival stories with a reality-show hook, in the vein of Seventh Moon or Fertile Ground; Not for you if you want strong scares, lots of gore, or polished horror.
Pros: creepy prison setting; entertaining premise; decent atmosphere | Cons: low scare factor; weak ghost threat; uneven execution
