Seven black friends go away for the weekend, only to find themselves trapped in a cabin with a killer who has a vendetta. They must pit their street smarts and knowledge of horror movies against the murderer to stay alive.

A wickedly funny and surprisingly bloody slasher that gleefully skewers horror tropes. It’s a high-energy, meta-commentary-fueled ride that’s as smart as it is terrifying, perfect for a group that loves to laugh and scream.
